GG-W vs UPW-W, Match 3 WPL 2025: Predicted playing XIs, live streaming details, weather and pitch report

The Gujarat Giants Women are gearing up to take on the UP Warriorz Women in the third match of the Women's Premier League, set to take place at Kotambi Stadium. Unfortunately, the UP Warriorz are facing a challenge with Alyssa Healy unavailable at the season's start. Deepti Sharma will captain the team this time, with West Indies all-rounder Chinelle Henry stepping in for Healy. Although the UP Warriorz have had mixed results in past seasons, their best finish being third place, they have made some roster changes and are optimistic about turning their luck around.

Conversely, the Gujarat Giants have experienced a setback in their Women's Premier League journey, suffering a defeat for the third consecutive season, this time against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Despite a solid first innings total of 200, highlighted by an impressive 79* from Ash Gardner, the team struggled in the field and with their bowling. They dropped three key catches, including a missed chance to dismiss Richa when she was on a duck, which proved detrimental as she went on to score 67 runs.
