In a crucial Women's Premier League 2025 encounter, UP Warriorz captain Deepti Sharma won the toss and elected to field against the Gujarat Giants on Monday. Both teams have clinched two wins in their first five matches, making this clash vital for their playoff aspirations.

Currently in third place, UP Warriorz could match Mumbai Indians' points tally with a victory, while Gujarat Giants, despite having the same points as UP Warriorz, languish at the bottom due to a poor net run rate. Sharma emphasized the bowlers' edge early on and expressed enthusiasm about playing at home. Team lineup changes include Mcgrath and Saima out, with Voll and Gouher stepping in.

Gujarat Giants' skipper Ashleigh Gardner anticipated a high-scoring game, targeting a score of 170-plus on what appeared to be a promising batting track. She stressed the importance of adaptability to the conditions, with no changes made to the team's lineup. The line-ups are full strength, with players eager to secure a much-needed win. (ANI)
