The Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 action will continue today with match number 8 of the season between Mumbai Indians (MI) and UP Warriorz (UPW) at the DY Patil Cricket Stadium in Navi Mumbai. UP skipper Meg Lanning won the toss and decided to bowl first on the night
This will also be a battle between two of the most familiar captains of the WPL, as Harmanpreet Kaur will once again be leading MI’s charge against Meg Lanning’s UPW. While MI’s head-to-head record against UPW stands at 5-2, their record against skipper Meg Lanning stands at 4-4, including two final wins. This means that when it comes to group stages, Lanning leads Harmanpreet by 4-2.
However, the story of 2025 has been a little different. While defending champions MI, just like the previous three seasons, have started on a high note, Lanning-led UPW have struggled to find their perfect rhythm — something they would like to change with a match against MI.
With all that in mind, let’s take a look at how the MI vs UPW head-to-head encounters have panned out over the years.
