WPL 2023 - UP Warriorz v Gujarat Giants

We are down to the knockout stages of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023. The Eliminator will see the Mumbai Indians Women (MI) lock horns with the UP Warriorz (UPW) at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai. The winner of this clash will face the Delhi Capitals Women, who have directly qualified for the final.

Mumbai Indians finished the league stage at the second spot. They won six out of eight games, but failed to qualify for the final directly due to a lower net run rate than the Delhi Capitals Women.

The Mumbai franchise convincingly beat the Royal Challengers Bangalore Women by four wickets in their last league game. Bowling first, Amelia Kerr picked up three wickets to help restrict the RCB Women to 125/9. She then top-scored with 31* as they chased down the total in 16.3 overs.

UP Warriorz, on the other hand, have had a roller-coaster of a ride in the WPL 2023 so far. They won four games and lost as many to finish at the third position.

They suffered a five-wicket defeat against the Delhi Capitals Women in their last league game. After being asked to bat first, Tahlia McGrath scored 58* but lacked support from the other end as they finished their innings on 138/6. Shabnim Ismail then picked up two wickets but it wasn’t enough as they failed to defend the total.
