UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Women Head to Head, WPL 2025: The Women's Premier League 2025 continues with an exciting clash between UP Warriorz (UPW) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the BRSABV Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on March 8, 2025.
With both teams struggling to keep their playoff hopes alive, this match will be crucial in determining their final standing in the league phase.

UP Warriorz have endured another disappointing campaign, failing to find momentum in WPL 2025. Deepti Sharma's side has struggled at home, losing all their matches in Lucknow so far. With just two wins in seven games, they are at the bottom of the points table and need a strong finish to salvage some pride. Their most recent defeat came against Mumbai Indians, where they lost by six wickets.
Royal Challengers Bangalore have also seen their season derail after a promising start. The defending champions won their opening two matches but have since lost four consecutive games. With two wins and four losses, they are placed fourth and are almost out of playoff contention. Their last game saw them suffer a nine-wicket thrashing against Delhi Capitals.
The head-to-head battle between UP Warriorz and Royal Challengers Bangalore has been competitive, with RCB leading the overall record 3-2. In the 2023 season, both teams won one match each, while RCB dominated the 2024 season, winning both encounters. UP Warriorz, however, secured a dramatic win in their first meeting in WPL 2025, levelling the recent head-to-head.
