The ninth match of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2023 will see Delhi Capitals Women (DEL-W) take on Gujarat Giants (GUJ-W) at Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy in Mumbai on Saturday, March 11. Ahead of the match, here's everything you need to know about the GUJ-W vs DEL-W Dream11 prediction.
Gujarat Giants registered their first win in the WPL earlier in the week, courtesy of a fine batting display against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Despite Beth Mooney being ruled out, Gujarat have a well-balanced side with the likes of Harleen Deol and Ash Gardner slowly finding their feet in the WPL.
They are up against a decent Delhi Capitals side who have won two out of three games so far. While their batting unit has delivered the goods more often than not, the Capitals will want their bowlers to step up sooner rather than later.
With two valuable points up for grabs, a cracking game is on the cards between the two sides in Mumbai.
