UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Match Toss Prediction

The average first innings score at this venue is 158 in WPL. There have been six matches played in this venue in WPL and only twice a team has scored more than 200 runs. Pacers have enjoyed playing in this venue and have taken more wickets (41) compared to Spinners (24) in WPL. They have also been on the economical side and have conceded less than 8 runs per over in WPL. Hence, batting first may be a better option.

Weather Report

Mumbai’s weather in March has always been about sapping humidity and that causes a considerable amount of concern during the daytime. But given this is an evening game, here, the weather will be slightly pleasant with only a 5% chance of rain predicted. But for the evening, the weather seems to be clear.

UP Warriorz Team Form

UP Warriorz seemed prime to make it to the next stage of the Women’s Premier League 2023, simply by winning two games already in four matches. A win on March 14 will give them enough success story to rave about and hence, it is prudent they would be eager to take on RCB at the DY Patil Stadium tomorrow.

UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Head-To-Head

Both sides have played each other once in the past and in the first round, UP Warriorz secured a fine win to get started. The fortune of RCB is so detrimental that you could expect to roll over without having to break any sweat.

UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Betting Odds

We have done proper research for you to find out the best betting odds available in the market to simplify your research for the match between UP Warriorz and Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Women’s Premier League, set to take place on Wednesday.

RCB to score over 45.5 runs @ 1.81 (Melbet)

Royal Challengers Bangalore have gone for an aggressive approach in batting and currently have the 2nd most runs as a team in the WPL 2023. Now Devine and Perry are the two best batters in the side after they played five matches in the tournament. Further, UP Warriorz bowlers have been heavily struggling to control the flow of runs while bowling in WPL 2023, which has been a cause of concern with the batting unit coming into form. Apart from Sophie Ecclestone, none of the UP bowlers have managed to maintain an economy rate of below 8 and have been conceding way too many runs.

UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Best Batters

Perrry to be RCB’s best batter (Melbet)

After an average start to the season in the first three matches, all-rounder Ellyse Perry has stepped up with the bat with consecutive fifties in the last two matches for RCB. Moreover, Ellyse Perry is currently the 2nd highest run-getter in WPL, only behind Meg Lanning. Perry has been quite identical in scoring against pace and spin. However, she has been dismissed twice against spin as compared to once by spin and hence averages a lot more against spin in WPL 2023.

Healy to be UP’s best batter (Melbet)

After starting the WPL with two below-par outings, UP Warriorz captain Alyssa Healy bounced back with a 96* followed by another fifty. Interestingly, Alyssa Healy registered form with her 96* against RCB and hence would look to put on a similar performance. The UP opener has been destructive against both pace and spin, where she has maintained a strike rate of more than 150 against both bowling types. However, her average rises considerably while facing spin.

UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Best Bowlers

Ecclestone to be UP’s best Bowler (Melbet)

English off-spinner Sophie Ecclestone has been in good form in the ongoing WPL, and is the joint 2nd most wickets amongst all bowlers till now. Sophie Ecclestone also delivered her best WPL bowling figures against RCB, where she grabbed four wickets to rout the Bangalore batting order. She also has a decent record against RCB batters in WT20 cricket, only if she manages to ignore Ellyse Perry and Smriti Mandhana.

Shobana to be RCB’s best bowler (Melbet)

Off-spinner Asha Shobana also stepped up with the ball in the last match for RCB, grabbing two wickets for just 27 runs in her four overs. The bowler is still a rather unknown utility who has only played two WT20 matches, both in the WPL.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: UP Warriorz

We stand clearly with what Melbet thinks so. From the logical standpoint, it makes sense that we back UP Warriorz to make the day count. Royal Challengers Bangalore have gone for an aggressive approach in batting and currently have the second most runs as a team in the WPL 2023. However, they have lost way too many wickets and in fact, have lost more wickets than any other team in the WPL 2023. To add to it, their strike rate and the run rate has also been average due to the lack of prominent batters and hence, are bottom placed with 5 defeats in 5 matches. Hence, it is paramount we go with the team with most balance.

UPW to win @ 1.736 (Melbet)

RCB to win @ 2.11 (Melbet)
