Match Preview
Gujarat Giants Women (GG-W)
Gujarat Giants have struggled recently, losing three matches in a row. Despite having big names, they haven’t been able to put together a complete team performance.
- Strong individual players
- Inconsistent top order
- Need a big partnership
Beth Mooney, Ashleigh Gardner, and Sophie Devine are key. If these three click together, GG-W can dominate.
Key Players:
Beth Mooney, Ashleigh Gardner, Sophie Devine, Georgia Wareham
UP Warriorz Women (UPW-W)
UP Warriorz come into this game with two consecutive wins, both against MI-W. Confidence is high, but their top-order inconsistency remains a concern.

- Good bowling balance
- Over-dependence on Lanning & Litchfield
If Meg Lanning or Phoebe Litchfield get going, UPW-W can post or chase big totals.
