Following the Bollywood extravaganza, the WPL 2024 kicks off with a showdown between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Delhi Capitals (DC). Led by Meg Lanning, DC aims to avenge their previous loss to MI, helmed by Harmanpreet Kaur.
Last season, UP Warriorz, captained by Alyssa Healy, reached the Eliminator but fell to Mumbai. Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Gujarat Giants (GT) seek redemption after missing playoffs.
Matches will also be held at New Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium, including the Eliminator on March 15 and the Final on March 17.
