RCB-W vs UPW-W WPL 2026 match no 5 LIVE: Smriti Mandhana’s Royal Challengers Bengaluru will look to continue their winning run as they take on Meg Lanning-led UP Warriorz in their second match of Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 season at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Monday.

WPL 2024 winner Royal Challengers Bengaluru have go off to a flying start with their three-wicket win over defending champions Mumbai Indians in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 opener last week. Smriti Mandhana’s RCB will now look to continue their winning run as they take on UP Warriorz in match no. 5 of the WPL 2026 season at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Monday.

Meg Lanning’s UP Warriorz put up a brave fight in their opening match against Gujarat Giants last weekend but their effort fell short by 10 runs as they failed to chase down massive 208-run target on Saturday. Australian opener Phoebe Litchfield led the Warriorz massive chase with a brilliant 78 off 40 balls with five sixes and 8 fours while Indian all-rounder Asha Sobhana chipped in with 27 off 10 balls with 2 sixes and 3 fours.

For RCB, South African all-rounder Nadine de Klerk was the star of the show, first claiming 4/26 with the ball and then scoring an unbeaten 63 off 44 balls with 2 sixes and 7 fours as Smriti Mandhana’s side stunned Mumbai Indians.

The Warriorz will bank on the experience of Indian pacer Shikha Pandey, as she has dismissed RCB skipper Smriti Mandhana five times in 42 deliveries. Meanwhile, the new Warriorz skipper Meg Lanning needs only 18 more runs to complete 1000 runs in her WPL career.
