GG-W vs UPW-W Live Score, WPL 2025: Hello and a very warm welcome to News18 CricketNext’s live coverage of the 15th match in the 2025 Women’s Premier League (WPL) season between the Gujarat Giants and the UP Warriorz at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.
Deepti Sharma’s Warriorz are hosting Ashleigh Gardner’s Giants for the first-ever WPL game at their home stadium. However, they would want to give the visitors anything but the mehman nawazi that the capital city is known for, especially at this stage of cut-throat competition in the WPL.
The Warriorz and the Giants are among the only three teams in the edition who have not won more than two matches so far. A better net run-rate (NRR) places the Warriorz third in the points table and the Giants at last.
Both teams have lacked consistency in killing off games, despite showing as much quality in the field as the best sides. This match would be as much about changing the feel of the season as about getting over the hangover of the forgettable performances of the past two seasons. The winner will separate themselves as the best-of-the-rest while the loser will see more questions and pressure mounted over their campaign.
