UP-W vs DEL-W Dream11 Prediction: Top picks & tips for the 4th match of WPL 2024 | Fantasy Cricket Tips for DEL-W vs UP-W
Delhi Capitals (DEL-W) and UP Warriorz (UP-W), two teams who suffered very close defeats first up, meet in the fourth match of WPL 2024. Both teams are in need of a victory in these early stages with Mumbai Indians looking solid and Royal Challengers Bangalore looking much-improved.
DEL-W came within a whisker of defeating defending champions Mumbai on the opening night. A final-ball six broke their hearts, but here they have the chance to make amends. With regards to UP-W, they’ll be disappointed with the way they played spin against RCB, which is an area for improvement today.
