Match Preview:
After some incredible opening games, UP Warriorz and Gujarat Giants will lock horns at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Both teams have decent cricket, but the Giants, with a dismal season so far, will look to get off the mark by winning their first game in 2024. Ahead of this fixture, the Warriorz took down the defending champions, Mumbai Indians, while the Giants lost to the Royal Challengers Bangalore in a lop-sided defeat.
Pitch Report:
The M.Chinnaswamy Stadium has lived up to expectations of being one of the most high-scoring grounds in India with an average score of 140 in the WPL 2024. The true bounce off the pitch and the shorter boundaries allow batters to score many runs at this venue. But bowlers, especially with the new ball, can generate swing, while spinners can also impact the game.
Team Analysis:
UP Warriorz:
The Alyssa Healy-led UP Warriorz put forth a dominant performance against Mumbai Indians after the defending champs posted a competitive 161-run target. Chasing this total, the out-of-form Kiran Navgire starred with a quick-fire half-century, which blasted MI out of the game. Then unlikely in their previous games, the Warriorz held their nerves to see off mini-collapse and seal a stunning win.
SportsTiger Playing XI of UP Warriorz:
Alyssa Healy (c & wk), Vrinda Dinesh, Tahlia McGrath, Grace Harris, Shweta Sehrawat, Kiran Navgire, Poonam Khemnar, Deepti Sharma, Sophie Ecclestone, Anjali Sarvani, Rajeshwari Gayakwad
Gujarat Giants:
Continuing their form from the 2023 season, the Gujarat Giants are languishing at the bottom of the WPL 2024 table. The Beth Mooney-led side has failed to find its feet in the season, with two big losses creating further problems for the management. Their batting lineup has been a massive disappointment with the likes of Mooney, Veda Krishnamurthy, Harleen Deol, Phoebe Litchfield and others failing to score runs. These concerns have put extra pressure on their bowlers which has led to their dismal losses.
