WPL 2024: UP-W vs GUJ-W Pitch Report, Dream11 Team Prediction, Last Match Scorecard and Head-To-Head Records

The month of March will begin with a game between the bottom-dwellers of the WPL 2024 season, Gujarat Giants, and UP Warriorz. Beth Mooney-led Gujarat has lost the first two games, putting them at the bottom of the table, while Alyssa Healy-led UP Warriorz are currently in the second-last position with just one win in the first three games.

But UP Warriorz will be entering the match with boosted confidence following their recent victory against Mumbai Indians. On the other hand, Gujarat Giants seem to be struggling in both batting and bowling departments this season. In their last two games, they batted first but failed to surpass the 130-run mark in both instances.

UP-W vs GUJ-W Pitch Report

The match will be held at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru which is known for favorable conditions for the batsmen. Despite other WPL teams displaying a strong batting intent at Chinnaswamy, Gujarat Giants have struggled in their last two games at the same venue. Gujarat Giants have been an underperforming side in the WPL, including the inaugural season. Given these factors, we believe UP Warriorz may have the upper hand over Giants in Friday’s encounter. The toss winner is expected to bowl first.
