UP-W vs RCB-W Live Streaming, WPL 2025: UP Warriorz will face Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women in the 18th match of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025.
The match is set to take place at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Saturday, March 8, starting at 7:30 PM IST. UP Warriorz currently find themselves at the bottom of the points table with two wins and five losses in seven matches.

Despite playing at home, they will be competing primarily for pride, having been eliminated from playoff contention. Meanwhile, Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women, with two wins from six games, are still fighting to keep their qualification hopes alive. This upcoming match is crucial for RCB as they aim to bounce back from a string of disappointing performances.
The evening conditions in Lucknow are expected to be clear, with a temperature around 20°C and no chance of rain. The conditions are ideal for cricket, though reduced visibility at 7 km may slightly challenge fielders under the lights.
The Ekana Cricket Stadium pitch has shown balanced conditions this season. Spinners have enjoyed considerable success with turn on offer, while batters have had to adapt to slower surfaces. Modest scores in recent matches indicate that a score of 160+ could prove competitive. Teams winning the toss may prefer to bat first to post a solid total.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women are on the brink of playoff elimination after enduring four consecutive defeats. While star all-rounder Ellyse Perry has carried the team with 295 runs at an exceptional average of 98.3, the rest of the batting unit has struggled to match her consistency. RCB will hope for strong performances from skipper Smriti Mandhana, who had a standout knock of 81 in their previous game against UP-W.
On the other hand, UP Warriorz have struggled to find a stable batting order this season. While Australian all-rounder Georgia Voll has impressed with a recent half-century, their inconsistency has cost them dearly. With no playoff hopes remaining, UP Warriorz will look to end their campaign positively with a morale-boosting victory at home.
