With eight matches now done and dusted, the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 is almost halfway through its league stage, which will be 20 matches long, and teams have already started calculating their chances of making it to the next round.

 

The team that leads the race for qualification to the next round are the WPL 2024 champions, who, with two wins in two games and a net run rate of +1.964, are leading the points table. The defending champions Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Giants both have four points from three matches, but Mumbai outranks Gujarat due to a healthier net run rate.
