The Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 is going to kick off on January 9, and the first match will feature the current titleholders Mumbai Indians against the previous winners Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. The tournament that lasts for 28 days will end on February 5, with the final taking place on a weekday for the first time at Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara.

This year’s edition is full of firsts including a January–February window instead of the traditional February–March slot, which the league takes to avoid clashes with major international cricket events. The two-venue format is back, with Navi Mumbai having the first 11 matches including two Saturday double-headers, after which the final 11 league games and the playoffs will be at Vadodara.

Mumbai Indians are the most successful team by far in the league's short history, having won two titles in three seasons, and are entering WPL 2026 as the defending champions. RCB are the only other winners, while Delhi Capitals can lay claim to the unique (and unwanted) record of being also-rans in all three seasons. Gujarat Giants and UP Warriorz are still whispering their dreams aloud for a maiden finals appearance.

After the final on February 5, India's women cricketers will directly head out for a full-fledged tour of Australia starting on February 15.

Gujarat Giants (GG), semifinalist of the previous Women's Premier League (WPL), steal most of the limelight in the auction room, which was held on the afternoon of November 27. GG has the reputation of putting up the paddle aggressively; he did the same during the WPL 2026 auction. 

The Gujarat-based franchise came into the auction with only two retained players—Ashleigh Gardner and Beth Mooney—and a hefty moneybag. They did not hesitate to invest Rs 2.00 crore for the explosive batter Sophie Devine, which made their intention clear during the initial stage of the auction. Gujarat Giants franchise officials were there to reshape their squad, and they did that with precision. 

After the auction, their squad on paper looks well-balanced and a serious contender for the upcoming title. The team management created the new-look setup with a blend of internationally reputed players and domestic talents.  Bharti Fulmali (Rs 70 lakh), multi-talented all-rounder Kashvee Gautam (Rs 65 lakh), and India’s pace hope Renuka Singh (Rs 60 lakh) were some of their smart domestic picks.

The BCCI is expected to hold the WPL 2026 mega auction at the end of November. The Women’s Premier League, which started two years ago, has never had a mega auction before. Franchises have been informally informed about the board’s plan for this year.

WPL 2026: Mega Auction Likely in November as Teams Plan Retentions

 

The five WPL teams Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Delhi Capitals, UP Warriorz, and Gujarat Giants are waiting for details such as how many players they can retain, whether the Right to Match (RTM) rule will be used, the auction budget, and other rules. These decisions will be finalized in the upcoming WPL committee meeting.

The third season of the WPL is expected to start from January-February 2026, though exact dates are not confirmed yet. RCB, Mumbai Indians, and Delhi Capitals are reportedly not in favor of the mega auction. They feel breaking up teams that took years to build could hurt the league.

On the other hand, Gujarat Giants and UP Warriorz want to refresh their squads and support the idea of a mega auction. A WPL official said it’s important for all teams to stay competitive, and each team will likely be allowed to retain up to five key players. RCB captain Smriti Mandhana, who was the first player bought in the 2023 WPL auction, remains the most expensive player at ₹3.2 crore (around $415,000).

Gujarat Titans (GT) will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in another IPL 2025 Match 51, happening on May 2, 2025, at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. The match starts at 7:30 PM IST, in a potential playoff match-up, as we have GT under the captaincy of Shubman Gill playing SRH under the captaincy of Pat Cummins! 

Narendra Modi Stadium Stats & Records 

  • Total Matches Played: 39
  • Matches Won Batting First: 18
  • Matches Won Batting Second: 21

  • Lowest Total 130/8 Delhi Capitals vs. Gujarat Titans (2024)
  • The average 1st innings score -172

Weather & Pitch Report

Ahmedabad's weather on May 2, 2025, will likely be warm, with temperatures between 33–37°C (91–99°F) and humidity around 50–60% in the evening. The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium could possibly be a good batting surface in the beginning but may assist spinners as the match moves out of the powerplay phase. Dew could also be a factor in the second innings, potentially making the batting conditions easier for the chasing side.

GT vs SRH: Match Preview

The Gujarat Titans, led by Shubman Gill, just won their last match, Match 19 against Sunrisers Hyderabad, by 7 wickets, thanks to wickets from Mohammed Siraj (4/17) and a score of 61* from Gill. In total, GT has 6 wins from their 9 matches to date and is reliant on their batters (Sai Sudharsan, Jos Buttler, and Shubman Gill) and their bowling (Rashid Khan, Mohammed Siraj, and Prasidh Krishna) being suited to the conditions in Ahmedabad. In their return match, Pat Cummins is leading Sunrisers Hyderabad on a tough stretch, with 3 wins from 9 matches. SRH relied on players Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, and Heinrich Klaasen for runs, and Harshal Patel and Shami led a dangerous bowling group. SRH’s recent form is shaky, but their desire for retribution could make this a tight contest against GT’s home advantage.

The 51st match of the IPL 2025 will feature Gujarat Titans (GT) against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on May 2, 2025, at 7:30 PM IST. Shubman Gill will captain GT, while Pat Cummins will captain SRH. This preview will cover their head-to-head record, player matchups and similarities, as well as some of their exciting encounters in the past, to prepare for this anticipated match-up.

Head-to-Head Record

  • GT Wins: 3

Narendra Modi Stadium: GT and SRH have played once at the Narendra Modi Stadium, with GT emerging victorious by 34 runs in 2023.

Most Exciting Matches Between GT vs SRH

Their rivalry may not be that old, but there have been exciting clashes that have featured some excellent individual performances as well as some nail-biting finishes:

IPL 2025, Match 19: April 6, 2025 - Hyderabad

  • SRH Total – 152/8 (20 overs)
  • GT Total – 153/3 (16.4 overs)
  • Result: GT won by 7 wickets

GT, through Mohammed Siraj’s (4/17) aggressive spell (after the early dismissals of Travis Head (8) and Abhishek Sharma (18)), limited SRH to a total of 152/8. Nitish Kumar Reddy (31 off 34) and Heinrich Klaasen (27 off 19) put up some resistance, but GT's bowlers, such as Sai Kishore (2/24), held SRH back. Shubman Gill's unbeaten 61 off 43 and Washington Sundar's blistering 49 off 29 propelled GT to victory with 20 balls remaining. Mohammed Shami conceded 2/28 for SRH, but their bowling lacked penetration. Siraj was the Player of the Match.

IPL 2024, Match 12, March 31, 2024—Ahmedabad

  • SRH Score: 162/8 (20 overs)
  • GT Score: 163/3 (19.1 overs)

GT's pursuit was founded upon Shubman Gill (36 off 28) and Sai Sudharsan (46 off 36), with David Miller's undefeated 44 off 27 clinching it with a six. Mayank Markande's 24-run over came back to haunt SRH, changing the momentum. Mohit Sharma was awarded Player of the Match for his tight bowling.

  • SRH Score: 154/9 (20 overs)

GT posted 188/9, driven by Shubman Gill’s 101 off 58 and Sai Sudharsan’s 47 off 36. Bhuvneshwar Kumar (5/30) was SRH’s standout bowler, but their batting crumbled to 154/9. Heinrich Klaasen scored 64 off 44, but Mohammed Shami’s 4/21 and Rashid Khan’s 2/28 ensured GT’s dominance. Gill’s century earned him the Player of the Match award.

RR vs GT: Weather and Pitch Report

The weather in Jaipur on the 28th of April is likely to have clear skies with temperatures between 28 and 34 degrees Celsius and a low chance of rain. The humidity could be high enough to produce dew in the second half of the match, so chasing teams may get an advantage in the second innings. The pitch at Sawai Mansingh Stadium provides a good, even bounce for batsmen, allows pacers to get some swing in the early stages, and also will spin in the mid and late stages of the innings. A first innings score of 170–200 is a good first innings score by IPL standards, but chasing is certainly an advantage since historically, results have favored chasing teams, and if there is dew, it should favor chasing teams even more.

RR vs GT: Match Preview

Rajasthan Royals, under the captaincy—as well as the batting prowess—of Sanju Samson, will hope to take advantage of home conditions at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium. Yashasvi Jaiswal provides blistering starts, Riyan Parag is consistently good, and Sanju Samson is steady in supporting a very effective batting ensemble. Jos Buttler can take advantage of his powerful hitting and have a game's outcome tilt in favor of the RR's. Jofra Archer provides pace with his bowling, and Wanindu Hasaranga, Sandeep Sharma, and Maheesh Theekshana can spin the ball or league competition heads down with their ever-fortifying prowess.

Gujarat Titans, led by Shubman Gill, possess a balanced team, which strengthens their already well-oiled batting line-up. With the likes of Sai Sudharsan, Gill, the finishing capabilities of Rahul Tewatia, and Shahrukh Khan’s pace, Jos Buttler's batting may just be what prevents GT from yielding ahead of completion. Although Rashid Khan and Sai Kishore provide spin threat and are supported by pace, with Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna, GT’s balanced lineup and recent form make them a formidable opponent, especially after their dominant performances in earlier matches, such as their 58-run win over RR in Match 23.

Shubman Gill, a rising young cricketing star in India, continues to be very successful on and off the field of play. As current captain of the Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025, Gill is performing with noticeable calmness and composure and has only strengthened the belief that he will soon captain India in all formats. Along with his growing status as an athlete, his personal life has also created headlines, with a never-ending string of speculation regarding his relationships.

Unsurprisingly, one of the rumors most talked about has been related to a supposed relationship with Sara Tendulkar, daughter of legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar. Recently, in an interview, Shubman Gill finally commented on the ongoing rumors and explained there was no truth or accuracy to them. Although he did not name anyone directly in his comments, he was clear that he had been single for over three years and the rumors were unrelated to reality. In fact, Gill was surprised that he was linked to people he had never even seen or met.

Shubman Opens Up on Relationship Buzz

Gill said, "I have been single for over three years, and there have been so many speculations and rumors talking about me with different people. Sometimes, it is so ridiculous that I have never even seen or met that person, but the rumors are out there." His statement underlines that his sole focus remains on his professional career, leaving no room for distractions like relationships.

It is curious that the gossip surrounding Gill and Sara Tendulkar was mostly fueled by a few harmless Instagram interactions—despite the fact that the two have never been spotted in public together. The baseless gossip spread like wildfire with absolutely no foundation to stand on. Gill has previously been linked to actress Sonam Bajwa as well, but there's just a lot of speculation about that one too. 

Now that Gill has made his position clear, fans and media may finally stop putting so much attention into what is not important and focus on what is important - his remarkable achievements on the cricket field. As Gill continues to improve as a cricketer and leader, he very much doesn't want off-the-field distractions to hinder his journey.

Star pacer of Gujarat Titans, Kagiso Rabada, has headed back to South Africa after exiting the current IPL 2025 season for personal reasons. The franchise doubled down on the positive nature of his departure, maintaining that while they wish him all the best, his exit will leave an obvious hole in the team’s ability to compete.

Major Setback for Gujarat Titans

Rabada’s departure comes as a massive loss for Gujarat Titans, as he has proven to be the game changer in their bowling line-up. His pace, experience and ability to take wickets have been key to the team’s campaign thus far. In his absence, the franchise will have to reassess their bowling strategy and find an effective replacement.

The management of Gujarat Titans has backed Rabada,emphasizing that his well-being is the priority. At this stage, no definitive word on whether he will come back in the tournament or be ruled out for the rest of the IPL season. The rest of the team will likely have to scour their own ranks or hit free agency to find a band-aid replacement.

Rabada’s return to South Africa fuels speculation about his international commitments. With a packed international schedule coming up, including the 2024 T20 World Cup, it’s unclear whether he will be available for Gujarat Titans for the rest of the season or if his focus will be on national duties.

As IPL 2025 is underway, Gujarat Titans will be tested on how quickly they can adjust without their best fast bowler. Whether Rabada does come back or not, his absence will certainly be felt as the team seeks its next trophy.
