The Delhi Capitals have been one of the most consistent teams in the WPL. In both the 2023 and 2024 seasons, they dominated the league stage and made it to the final, only to fall short of winning the trophy. In their opening match of the season against former champions Mumbai Indians, the Capitals put up a strong fight but could not secure a victory, starting their campaign on a disappointing note.

On the other hand, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru finally broke their long-standing trophy drought in 2024, defeating Delhi Capitals in the final to win their first title. They have started the 2025 season with a bang, successfully chasing down a massive 200+ run target against the Gujarat Giants and winning by six wickets.

Team Performance Overview

Gujarat Giants have had a tough run in the WPL so far. In 2023, they finished at the bottom of the table with just two wins and six losses. Unfortunately, history repeated itself in 2024, as they finished fifth with the same record. However, they have made some key changes in their squad for the 2025 season and will be hoping for a fresh start.

On the other hand, UP Warriorz also had a disappointing 2024 season, missing out on the playoffs and finishing fourth. Despite their struggles, captain Deepti Sharma shined and was named the Player of the Tournament. UP Warriorz had a much better outing in 2023, finishing third and reaching the playoffs. With a strong squad, they will be looking to reclaim their place among the top teams this season.
