Gujarat Giants and UP Warriorz will begin their Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 journey with an exciting face-off on Saturday, January 10, at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai. With both teams looking to bounce back from disappointing results last season, the opening clash is expected to set the tone for the tournament.
UP Warriorz endured a forgettable WPL 2025 campaign after failing to qualify for the play-offs. Gujarat Giants, meanwhile, finished third on the points table but saw their campaign end with a loss in the eliminator. Both sides have since made notable changes following the WPL 2026 player auction and will be eager to start the new season on a positive note.
UP Warriorz Rely on New Leadership and Match-Winners
UP Warriorz have named Australia great Meg Lanning as their new captain, a move that adds experience and calm leadership to the side. The franchise has retained senior all-rounder Deepti Sharma and world-class spinner Sophie Ecclestone, who remain central to the team’s plans.
The Warriorz squad also features several strong performers including Harleen Deol, Shikha Pandey, Deandra Dottin, Phoebe Litchfield, Asha Sobhana, Kranti Goud and Pratika Rawal, giving them depth in both batting and bowling.
Gujarat Giants Bank on Stability and Star Power
Gujarat Giants have chosen continuity by retaining captain Ashleigh Gardner and the core group from last season. The team is packed with international quality, making them one of the most balanced squads in the competition.
With players like Beth Mooney, Sophie Devine, Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, Georgia Wareham, Kim Garth and Renuka Singh, the Giants have plenty of firepower and experience. Their mix of seasoned internationals and emerging Indian talent makes them a dangerous side on their day.
