Gujarat Giants vs UP Warriorz Match Analysis

Gujarat Giants Women and UP Warriorz Women square off in Women’s Premier League Match 18 on Monday night at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. With just one victory and five losses in their first six games, the Giants sit at the bottom of the standings. The Warriorz Women are in fourth place with three victories out of seven. On Monday, March 11th, at 19:30 local time, the game begins.

Before this game, Gujarat Giants were not able to advance to the next round of the 2024 PSL because they were unable to win the competition back-to-back. Given that they are playing against a stronger team, they might find it difficult to stay motivated.

UP Warriorz could use this victory to start building momentum before the knockout stage of the competition. They had fallen out of form at a crucial point in the campaign. It remains to be seen if they have enough to win another game. 

Gujarat Giants vs UP Warriorz Team Preview & Squads

Gujarat Giants

The Gujarat Giants Women made two changes in their matchup against the Mumbai Indians Women: Bharti Fulmali and Sneh Rana replaced Mannat Kashyap and Veda Krishnamurthy. In this match, we anticipate seeing the same starting lineup.

The captain, Beth Mooney, who also serves as the keeper-batter and opener, enters the game having hit eight fours and three sixes. In the previous game, 29-year-old right-hander Dayalan Hemalatha struck 74 runs off of 40 balls, recording one of her finest innings.

The 26-year-old slow left-arm orthodox bowler Tanuja Kanwar will be hoping to make history after taking out Hayley Matthews in the last game. Throughout the WPL 2024, Ashleigh Gardner, an Australian all-rounder, has been a consistent source of wickets. She dismissed Yastika Bhatia in the match against the Mumbai Indians Women.

UP Warriorz

One alteration was made to the squad before the matchup with Delhi Capitals Women, who are currently atop the standings, following a run of losses for UP Warriorz Women. With Tahlia McGrath returning, Chamari Athapaththu of Sri Lanka was removed, and this game shouldn’t see any changes.

In the most recent match, Deepti Sharma, an all-round player, grabbed four wickets and scored 59 runs off of 48 balls, earning Player of the Match honors. The skipper, Alyssa Healy, struck five additional fours in the last game and has been scoring more consistently as the competition has gone on.

The English left-arm orthodox spinner Sophie Ecclestone, who has performed well in the WPL in both of its seasons, removed Alice Capsey from the Delhi Capitals game. Deepti Sharma, 26, an off-spinner, will be eager to regain control of the ball after dismissing Meg Lanning, Annabel Sutherland, Arundhati Reddy, and Shikha Pandey.
