DCW vs UPWW Team Previews
Delhi Capitals Women
The Delhi Capitals have been brilliant throughout this season, the team has come back strongly after losing the season-opener against Mumbai and comes into this contest on the back of 4 consecutive wins. If Delhi wins here, it will become the first team to book a spot in the playoffs.
Once again, Meg Lanning is in brilliant form with the bat. She scored a half-century in the last match, her 3rd of the season, and is second on the list of top run-getters. She has received excellent support from Shafali Verma, who is her opening partner.
Together, they will hope to give Delhi a strong start. Jemimah Rodrigues scored 66 of 33 deliveries on Tuesday and will be a vital cog in the middle order. Delhi is also home to 3 brilliant all-rounders in the form of Alice Capsey, Marizanne Kapp, and Jess Jonassen, who add depth to the batting.
The bowling has been excellent too as the top 3 bowlers of the season belong to Delhi. The spinners, Jess Jonassen and Radha Yadav have picked up 17 wickets between them, while seamers Marizanne Kapp, Arundhati Reddy, and Shikha Pandey have 20. Overall, the Delhi Capitals are one of the most balanced sides in the league.

UP Warriorz Women
The UP Warriorz are coming into this contest on the back of consecutive defeats and are placed 4th on the points table. With only 2 more matches to go, the team will be desperate for a win here to improve its chances of qualifying.
Grace Harris, Deepti Sharma, and Alyssa Healy have been the key batters for UP this season. Harris is the leading run-scorer for the team with 173 runs, while Deepti Sharma, who scored a half-century in the last match, has been a vital cog in the middle order. However, the others have failed to support them.
Chamari Athapaththu has been one of the biggest underperformers of the season as she is averaging only 9.33 in 3 innings. Coming to the bowlers, Sophie Ecclestone is the leading wicket-taker with 7 wickets and has bowled some miserly spells.
She, along with Rajeshwari Gayakwad and Deepti Sharma makes up for a potent spin attack. The seamers have struggled with the new ball as well as at the death overs, costing valuable runs.

Bonus Cricket Bets
The Delhi Warriorz have managed to win just 1 toss in the 5 matches played so far. Seeing their poor track record, the Warriorz have a better chance of winning the toss in this match.
Jonassen is in brilliant form with the ball. She is the leading wicket-taker of the season and has picked up 3 wickets in each of her last 3 outings. She has emerged as the top bowler in 2 of those matches. Seeing her good form, we would back her to perform well yet again.
Deepti Sharma is second on the list of top run-getters for UP this season. She has scored at least 33 runs in each of her last 2 matches, including a half-century in the previous game. With the kind of odds being offered, it is worth putting a wager on Deepti.
