🏏WPL 2026: Match 14: UP-W W vs GGW at BCA Stadium, Kotambi, Vadodara on 22/01/26 at 7:30PM IST🏏

Image

The Match No. 14 of the ongoing Women Premier League 2026 is scheduled to be played between Gujarat Giants Women (GG W) and UP Warriorz (UP W) at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara on Thursday, January 22. The two teams were involved in a high-scoring contest earlier in the season, where the Giants claimed an emphatic win.

The Gujarat-based side got off to a positive start to the season, winning their first couple of matches. However, they have been on a losing streak ever since. The Ashleigh Gardner-led unit will be keen on overturning their lean patch as the league phase gets into its final stretch, and each game being as important as any other.

The Warriorz, on the other hand, got off to a forgettable start to their campaign. Three games in and they did not have any points on the board. They were able to find their mojo with consecutive clashes against Mumbai Indians Women and will aim to carry forward the winning momentum to make it a hattrick of wins on Thursday.

Gujarat Giants Women ❤️ and UP Warriorz Women [R]

Phoebe Litchfield

GG W vs UP W: Probable Best Performers

Probable Best Batter: Phoebe Litchfield

Phoebe Litchfield struck her second half-century of the WPL season in the Warriorz's recent clash. She looked to be in fine nick during her time in the middle. The 61 came after three scores in the 20s. The left-handed batter could be anticipated to play another impactful knock and guide the team's batting from the front.

Probable Best Bowler: Kashvee Gautam

Kashvee Gautam

Kashvee Gautam has picked up two wickets apiece in the Giants' recent couple of matches. Although she has been expensive, Kashvee's ability to strike with wickets have impressed many. The 22-year-old can be one of the bowlers to watch out for.

What they said:

"It's pretty frustrating. I'm not going to lie (on winning the toss and losing). I just think we're just not winning those small moments, whether it's in the field where you're taking chances and then people go on to make decent scores" - Ash Gardner, Gujarat Giants captain

"Losing the first three wasn't ideal, but the group stayed upbeat. We were confident in our ability and knew we just needed to bring it for a little bit longer. It's been really great from the group to come out and play against a really good Mumbai side and get two wins on the trot. That gives us some really nice momentum heading into Vadodara now" - Meg Lanning, UP Warriorz captain
