Ekana Stadiumの打ち上げレポートWarriorz vs Gujaratの巨人の前

The third season of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) is gearing up for its final leg at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. After Vadodara and Bengaluru hosted six and eight matches respectively, the remaining six games will take place in Lucknow.

UP Warriorz Women will face Gujarat Giants Women in their first-ever home match in WPL history. While Delhi Capitals Women have secured a playoff spot for the third consecutive season, both UPW and GG are under pressure to qualify.

UPW have been in this position before, but GG have yet to reach the playoffs. Having finished at the bottom of the table in the first two seasons, they find themselves in the same struggle once again.
