WPL 2026, Match 4: DCW vs GGW head-to-head, weather & pitch report, predicted playing XIs

Delhi Capitals Women will go up against Gujarat Giants Women in Match 4 of the Women’s Premier League 2026 at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai. This fixture brings together a side that has reached the WPL final multiple times and a team that is still searching for its first appearance in the summit clash.

Delhi Capitals Women are being led by Jemimah Rodrigues in the 2026 season. After three strong campaigns without a title, the franchise has made a fresh leadership call. However, their campaign did not begin as planned, as they suffered a defeat in their opening match against Mumbai Indians Women. This will be DCW’s second outing, and they will be eager to bounce back quickly.

Gujarat Giants Women are also playing their second match in as many days. Under the leadership of Ashleigh Gardner, it seems that the Giants look more settled and balanced than in previous seasons. They will be eager to put behind the past struggles and register an early positive result in this tournament.

DCW vs GGW: Weather & Pitch Report

The weather in Navi Mumbai will be quite conducive to a cricket. The temperature will remain around 28°C, partly cloudy and there is little chance of rain, as the probability is just 8%. Humidity will be around 62%, while light winds of about 11 km/h are expected.

The pitch at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy can be tricky for batters, especially early on. However, dew later in the evening often helps the chasing side, as seen in earlier matches this season. With a quick outfield, batters can score well by playing along the ground. Teams winning the toss may once again prefer to bowl first.
