UP Warriorz are currently placed third in the points table with 2 wins in 4 matches and would look to win this match to further their chances for the playoffs. Captain Alyssa Healy has snapped back into form in the last two, scoring consecutive fifties. She gained form in the reverse fixture against RCB, where she smashed an unbeaten 96 runs to take her team to a 10-wicket win. Tahlia McGrath has also been in fine form in WPL 2023 with 140 runs in 3 innings at a strike rate of 159.

In the reverse fixture against RCB, spinner Sophie Ecclestone was the star with the ball as she picked up 4 wickets for just 13 runs in 3.3 overs. Deepti Sharma also grabbed 3 wickets for 26 runs in 4 overs while Rajeshwari Gayakwad managed the important wicket of RCB captain.

Royal Challengers Bangalore are having a horrid first season as they are yet to win a match, losing 5 matches on the trott. Ellyse Perry has been the top scorer for the team with 195 runs while opener Sophie Devine has scored 153 runs. Explosive batter Richa Ghosh finally showed form in the last match as she smashed 37 runs off 16 balls with 3 fours & 3 sixes. Smriti Mandhana however is yet to gain form and her string of average scores have been a key reason for RCB's failures this season.

The bowling has been horrid from RCB where none of the bowlers has managed to settle. Heather Knight is the top wicket-taker for RCB with 4 wickets in 3 innings followed by Shobana Asha, Megan Schutt, Shreyanka Patil and Preeti Bose, all with 2 wickets each. Renuka Thakur has been ineffective in the tournament with only 1 wicket to her name in 5 matches.
