UP Warriorz and Delhi Capitals will face off in the 15th match of the Women’s Premier League (WPL)at the Arun Jaitley stadium, Delhi on March 8, 2024. Let us go through DEL W vs UP W dream11 predictions, match preview, top fantasy picks and see the favourites to win the game.
DEL W vs UP W Match Preview
After suffering their fourth loss of the WPL2024 against the Mumbai Indians on the eve before their next match, the UP Warriorz are in serious trouble. With only 2 games left at hand, UP probably will now need to win both the games to stand a chance at progressing to the next round. That won’t be easy as they now need to face the inform Delhi Capitals a day after their loss against Mumbai. Once again the batters let them down but similar to in their previous losses, Grace Harris’ failures with the bat and Ecclestone’s lack of wickets made things difficult for them. Maybe it’s time Alyssa Healy used Ecclestone more as an attacking option than a defensive one. However, the Capitals would be relieved by Deepti Sharma’s form with the bat leading into their match against DC, but they would want more from her with the ball.
The Delhi Capitals on the other hand have no such worries with the bat or ball. Their openers are firing, the middle order are getting runs and the bowlers amongst the wickets. Meg Lanning, the captain, is the 2nd highest run getter in this season, while three of their bowlers occupy top 3 spots in the list of wicket takers. For the Capitals,it hasn’t been the story of one or two individuals but a team. Someone always turns up when they need the most. Like in their previous game, Jemimah Rodrigues played a dynamic knock of 69 after dismal performances leading up to that game. Only concern for the Capitals will be the lack of game time that lower order have had so far in this tournament. Meanwhile, a win on Friday will see the Capitals qualify for the next round with 2 games at hand.
