UPW vs GG weather update: DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai weather report for WPL 2023 Match 3
A hot and humid day is expected at the DY Patil Sports Academy in Mumbai during the third Women's Premier League (WPL) 2023 match between UP Warriorz (UPW) and Gujarat Giants (GG). The game is scheduled to be played on Sunday, March 5.
Gujarat began their campaign on a losing note, going down against the Mumbai Indians on Saturday night. GG failed to perform as a unit, across both the batting and bowling departments. Things turned out worse for them when skipper Beth Mooney walked off with a hamstring injury in the first over of the run chase.
They could only muster 64 runs while chasing 208 and suffered a massive 143-run loss. The Giants have a lot to work on as they look to bounce back.
UP Warriorz, on the other hand, will play their first game of the tournament. Led by star wicketkeeper-batter Alyssa Healy, UPW will hope to get their combinations right from the very beginning. They also have the likes of Deepti Sharma, Tahila McGrath, and Shabnim Ismail in their ranks, who can win games on their own.
