Delhi Capitals won the toss and chose to field against UP Warriorz in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai. Warriorz have made one change in their playing eleven, with Chloe Tryon replacing Deandra Dottin. Delhi has retained the same eleven from their previous match.
Delhi Capitals’ captain Jemimah Rodrigues explained the decision to bowl first, citing the pitch improving with dew later on. She expressed confidence in chasing any target and praised the team’s performance in the last match. UP Warriorz’s captain Meg Lanning acknowledged the toss advantage but emphasized the need for proper execution regardless of the situation.
The ongoing elections for the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) and the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) have led to the WPL matches on January 14 and 15 being held without spectators. Both teams have announced their playing XIs for the match.
