Cricket enthusiasts are all set to welcome the Women’s Premier League (WPL). The inaugural edition of the franchise cricket tournament will see a number of top-ranked women cricketers in the world. Five powerhouse teams including Gujarat Giants, Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Delhi Capitals and UP Warriorz will compete during the month-long campaign to take the first trophy home. The WPL 2023 will kick off on March 4 with the blockbuster clash between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Giants.

At the initial stage of the WPL, all teams will face each other twice during the league stage as per the double round-robin format. It means each side must play eight games in total before advancing to the knockout stage. Based on their points in the group league, the top team will directly qualify for the final, while the second and third teams in the table will need to battle in a playoff game to secure their berth in the title bout.

The WPL 2023 Playoff is scheduled for March 24, while the final will take place on March 26 at Mumbai’s Brabourne Stadium.
