UPW vs GGW is the last sixth match of the WPL 2025 before the qualifiers, so every game counts at this point. UPW has had a pretty decent campaign in the tournament, while GGW struggled a lot since the beginning. 

However, the recent loss of RCBW has put them in the fourth position at the points table, and GGW is just one victory away from being in the top 4 teams and qualifying for eliminator matches. UPW will also look for a win today to be in the top 2 teams, so let’s look at the match details.

The pitch at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow typically offers a challenging surface for batters, making it difficult for them to score big. It also becomes harder to bar as the game progresses. Spinners will get an advantage from this surface, especially when bowling with precision. Pacers can also find it easier to maintain tight lines and lengths.
