The GG vs UPW rivalry in the WPL has been perfectly balanced at 3–3, but the early momentum belonged to UP Warriorz. UPW won the first three meetings between 2023 and early 2024, all while chasing, including two tense 3-wicket wins in 2023 and a 6-wicket win in 2024. Their dominance was driven by strong all-round performances, with Alyssa Healy’s aggressive starts and Sophie Ecclestone’s match-winning spells playing a key role.
However, Gujarat Giants bounced back by winning the last three consecutive encounters. GG edged UPW by 8 runs in Delhi, followed by a composed 6-wicket win in Vadodara, before delivering a statement performance with a massive 81-run victory in Lucknow, their biggest win against UPW. This turnaround was fueled by Beth Mooney’s consistency at the top, impactful middle-order contributions, and disciplined bowling led by Ashleigh Gardner, shifting the momentum firmly in GG’s favour.
