WPL 2026: Deepti, Lanning Take UPW To 143/8 Despite De Klerk’s Bowling Masterclass
Baroda Cricket Association Stadium: Skipper Meg Lanning’s early blitz and all-rounder Deepti Sharma’s resilient knock of 55 from 43 balls helped UP Warriorz (UPW) post a decent total of 143/8 in 20 overs in the must-win encounter against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the 18th match of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 at the Baroda Cricket Association Stadium at Kotambi, in Vidarbha on Thursday.
The Warriorz started well after being put to bat first, and their new opening combination worked out really well as Lanning and Deepti stitched a brilliant partnership to put up 50 runs in the Power-play without losing their wickets.
It was the first 50-plus opening stand in seven innings for UPW this season and the second-highest Power-play score for the side this year after 56/1 against the Mumbai Indians.
