Deepti Sharma’s UP Warriorz were one of the three sides to make it to the playoffs in the inaugural edition of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023, finishing 3rd on the points tally with 8 points. But a 72-run defeat at the hands of Delhi Capitals in the Eliminator ended their journey in the tournament.
