Background

WPL 2024, RCB vs Warriorz LIVE: The Women's Premier League (WPL) is well and truly underway. The tournament opener was quiet a thriller with the first match of the competition going down to the last ball. Eventually it was the defending champions Mumbai Indians (MI) who beat the last year's runners-up Delhi Capitals (DC) to kick off what promises an exciting edition of the tournament.

In match number 2, it will be Royal Challengers Bangalore (RC) who will take on UP Warriorz at their home venue-the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore. While Bangalore had a disastrous run last year and only managed to win 2 out of their 8 matches, Warriorz made it to the Playoffs but were knocked out by eventual champions MI in the Eliminator. Both teams, however, would want to start afresh with a win.

All in all it promises to be an thrilling affair as there are heavyweight players on both the sides with the likes of Smriti Mandhana, Sophie Devine, Ellyse Perry in the Bangalore camp and Alyssa Healy, Deepti Sharma and Sophie Ecclestone in the other. The management would have a tough job, in the words of Healy herself at the pre-match press conference, to decide the Playing 11.
