On the other hand, Royal Challengers Women won their opening match by 3 wickets against Mumbai Indians Women, successfully chasing down the target of 155 on the last ball of the match. With a rapid 57 runs in the Powerplay, RCB kicked off their chase with an explosive start. The game took a turn for the worse when they lost five wickets in the middle order for just 25 runs.

GG-W vs UP-W FAQ

The Women’s Premier League 2026 is going to kick off on January 9, and the excitement is already buzzing off the field. Ahead of the new season, players were seen sharing laughs, friendly banter, and relaxed moments to show the lighter side of the tournament.

During a recent pre-tournament show, UP Warriorz skipper Meg Lanning stole the spotlight with a playful moment involving the Delhi Capitals skipper, Jemimah Rodrigues. The clip immediately went viral, with people loving the lighthearted exchange between the two famous cricketers.

All five WPL team captains were present at the event, including Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur. Seated together, they took part in a casual chat with the hosts, setting a cheerful tone just days before the tournament begins.

Lanning’s fun sledge brings laughs before WPL 2026

During a truth-or-dare segment, Meg Lanning was dared to sledge Jemimah Rodrigues. The moment was extra special, as Rodrigues had previously played under Lanning when she captained Delhi Capitals in earlier WPL seasons.

Lanning, who was released by Delhi Capitals ahead of the WPL 2026 mega auction, was later picked by UP Warriorz and named their captain. She had spent three seasons with Delhi Capitals since the league began, making the exchange feel personal but friendly. Responding to the dare, Lanning said, “So now you know how your fielders feel when they don't listen to you and keep dancing on the field.” That comment brought loud laughter around the table, with Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana enjoying the moment the most.

Apart from that, The Mumbai Indians Women will start their title defense in the opening match against Royal Challengers Bangalore Women on January 9 at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai, which promises an exciting start to WPL 2026.

UP Warriorz have announced their new captain for the WPL 2026, as the star Australian player has been named for the role. 

The WPL 2026 is set to start on January 9 and will run until February 5. While all five teams are getting ready to begin the fourth season of the Women's Premier League, UP Warriorz have come with their new skipper.

Meg Lanning: UP Warriorz new captain for WPL 2026

Meg Lanning, the former Australian captain and former Delhi Capitals captain, is the new skipper of UP Warriorz. Under her leadership, the Delhi Capitals finished as the runners-up in the first three seasons of the WPL. 

UP Warriorz qualified for the Playoffs in the inaugural season (2023), but were eliminated from the league stages in the next two seasons, 2024 and 2025, finishing in fourth and fifth place, respectively. While Australian legend Alyssa Healy led the side for the first two seasons, Indian star all-rounder Deepti Sharma led the team last season. 

The new UP Warriorz skipper Meg Lanning is excited for her new role in the WPL, as she feels incredible with the rise of the tournament. 

Meg Lanning said, “As the WPL enters its fourth season, it’s been incredible to see how the league has evolved — the quality of cricket, competitiveness and emergence of exciting new talent continue to raise the standard each year. This is a talented group with a strong mix of international experience and Indian players, and I’m really looking forward to the challenge ahead.”

Australia won five ICC World Cups under Meg Lanning's captaincy

Under Meg Lanning's leadership, Australia Women won four ICC Women's T20 World Cup trophies (2014, 2018, 2020, and 2023) and one ICC Women's Cricket World Cup trophy (2022), as she is known as one of the most successful captains in international cricket history. 

The 2026 season of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) begins on January 09, this year, with the Mumbai Indians taking on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the curtain raiser at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai. Just like all seasons of the game, the upcoming edition is also expected to be an exciting one for the viewers and the players.

Just a week before the start of the WPL 2026, Delhi Capitals announced Jemimah Rodrigues as their new captain, while Ellyse Perry and Annabel Sutherland withdrew from the edition due to their personal reasons, which put the two teams- Bengaluru and the Delhi Capitals (DC) in a spot of bother for the new season of the tournament.

Over the years, some of the classical players have scored runs in the tournament as they enjoyed the pitch at the start of the Indian season. In the list of the top three run-getters, there is no Indian player. Among Indians, Shafali Varma remains the most successful player with 865 runs in 27 innings at an average of 36.04 and a strike rate of 162.59 with the help of six fifties.

A look at the top 3 run-getters in Women’s Premier League (WPL) history

1.   Nat Sciver-Brunt (Mumbai Women)

Nat Sciver-Brunt, who became the first retained player for the Mumbai Indians ahead of the WPL 2026, remains the leading run-getter of the league’s history with 1027 runs in 29 innings at an average of 46.68 and a strike rate of 141.85, with the help of eight half-centuries at the best score of unbeaten 80 runs.

Nat started her campaign in the WPL in 2022 with 332 runs in ten innings at an average of 66.40 and a strike rate of 140.08, with the help of three half-centuries at the best score of undefeated 72 runs for the Mumbai Indians. Her last season, where he notched up 523 runs in ten innings at an average of over 65 and a strike rate of more than 150, thanks to five half-centuries, remains our best in the competition.

With experience of over 130 WT20Is, the England veteran is expected to lead the batting department again heading into the WPL 2026.

2.   Ellyse Perry (Royal Challengers Bengaluru)

Ellyse Perry, playing for the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), is the second leading run-getter in WPL history. She has recorded an overall 972 runs in 25 innings at an average of nearly 65 and a strike rate of over 130 with the help of eight half-centuries and the best score of unbeaten 90 runs in this event.

Consistency has been a key for Perry, who clubbed over 300 runs in the last two seasons of the tournament, and that’s what will be the most missing factor for Bengaluru in their middle order, heading into the new season.

During the WPL 2025, Perry recorded 372 runs in just eight innings at an average of 93 and a strike rate of almost 150, scoring four half-centuries and the best coat of undefeated 90 runs.

3.   Meg Lanning (Delhi Capitals)

The veteran and successful Australia captain, Meg Lanning, led the Delhi Capitals in the first three seasons of the WPL before being shifted to the UP Warriorz for 2026. In the first two seasons of WPL, she crossed 330 runs consecutively.

Her best season with the bat came in the opening edition of the tournament, where Lanning smashed 345 runs in nine innings at an average of nearly 50 and a strike rate of almost 140, with the help of two half-centuries and the best score of 72 runs.

The last season was not the worst campaign for Lanning, but it was mediocre compared to her caliber. She 276 runs in nine innings at an average of 34.50 and a strike rate of under 120 with three half-centuries.

Perth Scorchers Women and Melbourne Stars Women will face off in the Knockout match of WBBL 2025, which will be held at WACA Ground, Perth on Tuesday.
