WPL 2024: Gujarat Giants Prevail Over UP Warriorz, Hurting Their Playoffs Chances
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Bottom-dwellers Gujarat Giants registered their second win of the Women's Premier League, beating UP Warriorz by eight runs in a keenly-contested encounter in Match 18 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Monday, hurting the Warriorz's chances of securing a place in the Playoffs and pushing them to the brink of elimination.
Electing to bat first, Gujarat Giants rode on an unbeaten half-century by skipper Beth Mooney (74 off 52 balls) while fellow opener Laura Wolvaardt blasted a 30-ball 43 as they raised 60 runs for the opening wicket. But Gujarat Giants lost wickets in regular intervals as they managed 152 for 8 in 20 overs.
Ashleigh Gardner (15) and Kathryn Bryce (11) were the other Gujarat batters to reach double figures. Sophie Ecclestone (3-38) and Deepti Sharma (2-22) were the wreckers in chief as they shared five wickets between them.
