RCB-W vs UP-W Match Preview

On Saturday evening at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Royal Challengers Bangalore Women will face UP Warriorz Women in the second match of the Women’s Premier League. Last year, RCB Women finished fourth place and missed the knockout stage. UP Warriorz completed third in the group stage before losing in the Eliminator. RCB Women kept 11 of their 18 players from last season’s squad, but they will expect higher standards this time around. This will not be a straightforward contest against the UP Warriorz Women, but we expect RCB to be competitive. UP Warriorz Women have a team full of match winners, so they will be extremely dissatisfied with how their tournament ended last season.
