WPL 2026: Delhi vs UP Warriorz preview, toss timings, live streaming
UPW, despite a misfiring batting line-up, showed promise in their last match, with Deepti Sharma promoted to open alongside Lanning, contributing a solid 74-run partnership.
Delhi Capitals (DC) face a crucial final league match in WPL 2026, where a victory will secure them a spot in the Eliminator. This is uncharted territory for DC, who have topped the table and directly qualified for the final in each of the first three editions. Standing in their way are UP Warriorz (UPW), who have a slim, mathematical chance of advancing. UPW, led by Meg Lanning, who previously captained DC to three runners-up finishes, will look to spoil DC’s party.
DC’s qualification hopes have been jeopardized by their failure to chase down targets against Gujarat Giants (GG) earlier this season, where they faltered in the last over twice, failing to score just nine and seven runs against Sophie Devine.
UPW, despite a misfiring batting line-up, showed promise in their last match, with Deepti Sharma promoted to open alongside Lanning, contributing a solid 74-run partnership. UPW has a chance to spoil DC’s chances and also set the tone for next season with a win, which could benefit Mumbai Indians if DC lose.
