UP Warriorz
Alyssa Healy leads the UP side, boasting a strong core of experienced Australian players such as Tahila McGrath and Grace Harris. The team relies on a spin-dominant bowling attack spearheaded by Deepti Sharma, supported by players like Sophie Ecclestone and Rajeshwari Gaikwad. While UP fell short in their chase against RCB women, their focus remains on strengthening their batting lineup, possibly by including Chamari Athapattu against Delhi.
Delhi Capitals
