The final game of the league stage of the WPL 2026 will determine who will be taking on Gujarat Giants Women in the eliminator. Smriti Mandhana's Royal Challengers Bengaluru have already secured a place in the grand finale of the tournament. With a win over Mumbai Indians, Gujarat Giants, led by Ash Gardner, also qualified for the next round. MI-W's chances depend on the final group game.
This game will see a faceoff between UP Warriorz Women and Delhi Capitals Women. It will be live at BCA Stadium on February 1 (Sunday) at 7:30 PM IST. Jemimah Rodrigues and her team have their fate in their own hands. They have been average throughout this season and need this win to qualify for the next round. UPW-W might not qualify even after a win, but they can certainly spoil the party of DC-W by beating them.

DC-W vs UPW-W Today’s Match Prediction:Both teams will be under pressure, and the one that can hold their nerves can win this game. DC-W have performed well overall, but whenever they have been put under pressure, they have failed. Their top order, which started well this season, has looked under par in recent matches.
The middle-order batters have looked good, but they have not been able to play at a higher strike rate. UPW-W have been poor throughout, but with not much left to play, they can play freely and produce a great game here. But these two teams will be compared overall; DC-W are better suited to win this game.
