Womens Premier League 2023: UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Women – 13th Match Preview and Updates

Cricket

So far in the WPL, the UP Warriorz have won two games and lost two. Because of the RCB’s recent form, they will have a mental advantage in the upcoming match. The UP Warriorz will put their previous defeat behind them as they prepare for a new challenge. If they win here, they will be very close to the top two spots.

The RCB women must win at all costs. From here on out, they’ll have to fight tooth and nail to make something of this year’s WPL. They’ve lost all of their games so far, disappointing their massive fan base. Another defeat will further diminish their chances of reaching the knockout stage of the competition.

The 13th Match between UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Women will take place on March 15th, 2023 at Dr DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai.

UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Women

UP Warriorz (Match Odds – 1.67):

Preview:

The UP Warriorz are having a good tournament so far, but a loss in the previous match will undoubtedly be a thorn in their side. In the previous match, they were completely outplayed and lost by 8 wickets. UP Warriorz batted first and scored 159 runs in 20 overs. In the innings, captain Alyssa Healy scored 58 runs off 46 balls and Tahlia McGrath scored 50 runs off 37 balls.

The bowlers had little success, as no one rattled the opposing batter. The UP Warriorz bowlers only managed two wickets in the innings as the opposing team easily chased down the total. They will need to improve if they want to compete in the WPL knockout phase.

Full Squad:

Alyssa Healy (c), Deepti Sharma (vc), Grace Harris, Anjali Sarvani, Rajeshwari Gayakwad, Shweta Sehrawat, Kiran Navgire, Lauren Bell, Parshavi Chopra, S Yashasri, Laxmi Yadav, Simran Shaikh, Sophie Ecclestone, Tahlia McGrath, Devika Vaidya, Shabnim Ismail

Royal Challengers Bangalore Women (Match Odds – 2.20):

Preview:

The RCB women are currently having a WPL to forget. They are struggling at the bottom of the table and have yet to win. They lost their previous match by two balls in a nail-biting contest. RCB posted a low-scoring total of 150, with Ellyse Perry remaining unbeaten on 67 runs off 52 balls. Richa Ghosh assisted her with a cameo of 37 runs in 16 balls.

The RCB bowlers gave it their all to defend this low total. Sobhana Asha was the team’s best bowler, taking two wickets while conceding 27 runs in four overs. The opposition beat the total with two balls to spare in the final over. They’ll have to get over this tough loss quickly because they face another tough opponent in UP Warriorz next.

Full Squad:

Smriti Mandhana (c), Sophie Devine, Heather Knight, Megan Schutt, Kanika Ahuja, Erin Burns, Dane van Niekerk, Preeti Bose, Komal Zanzad, Disha Kasat, Indrani Roy, Shreyanka Patil, Asha Shobana, Poonam Khemnar, Sahana Pawar, Richa Ghosh, Ellyse Perry, Renuka Singh

UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Women Prediction

The Royal Challengers Bangalore thought they were on their way to defeating the Delhi Capitals, only for two boundaries to keep them winless. They have some very good batters on their team, but their bowling attack is currently too weak. The UP Warriorz are far from a complete team, but they have outstanding players in Alyssa Healy and Sophie Ecclestone who can dominate with bat and ball. UP Warriorz will win, in our opinion.
