The Capitals looked like a much more settled unit under skipper Lanning and will hope to keep the momentum going against UPW, who held their nerves to beat Gujarat Gitans (GG) in their opening fixture.

Despite losing their top three batters in a single over, UP Warriorz chased down a 170-run target with one ball to spare. Kiran Navgire (53) and Grace Harris (59* off 26) scored half-centuries to take the team home.

While UPW look like the underdogs, Alyssa Healy and Co. are more than capable of springing a surprise.
