TEAMS PREVIEW
UP Warriorz Preview
UP Warriorz Women’s playoff hopes are all but gone after three consecutive losses left them at the bottom of the standings. With just one game left, their chances of sneaking into the top three rest on a series of unlikely results going their way.
Their best hope is to end their campaign on a high and for that to happen, they would need their batters to step up.
Chinelle Henry has been the most trustworthy batter, scoring 144 runs in six innings with a blistering strike rate of 212. Grace Harris and Deepti Sharma have also contributed well, both ing 120 runs while keeping up the scoring pace.
On the bowling side, Harris and Sophie Ecclestone have led the attack, taking 14 wickets between them. Deepti Sharma and Kranti Goud have chipped in with six wickets each. If UP is to end their campaign with a win, their bowlers will need to make an impact in the middle overs.
Key Players: Chinelle Henry, Deepti Sharma, Grace Harris

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The Ekana pitch offers a balanced playing surface that gradually slows down as evening progresses. Expect swing bowling in the initial overs under the lights, while spinners will extract substantial turn from the rough texture. Batters who adjust to the changing character of the surface will thrive, and bowlers who master cutters and off-pace deliveries become particularly effective after 9 PM.
Looking at conditions, Lucknow is forecast to enjoy a clear, pleasant evening without any rain interruptions anticipated during the match.

Winning Prediction
Despite their four-game losing streak, Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women still have a shot at making the playoffs. With only two group matches remaining, winning this game is essential for their survival. UP Warriorz Women, however, face a bleaker situation, sitting at the bottom of the table and requiring extraordinary results to maintain any playoff aspirations. Bengaluru hold the advantage as the more balanced outfit with stronger options in both batting and bowling departments. Given UP's disappointing campaign thus far, all indicators suggest Bengaluru will collect the points from this matchup.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women are our picks for the winners of this clash.
