DY Patil Stadium Pitch Report
The DY Patil Sports Academy pitch in Navi Mumbai is a batter’s paradise in WPL 2026, offering a hard, true surface with consistent bounce and good carry. Multiple matches have seen teams surpass 150–200 runs easily, with high-scoring encounters under lights. Dew often plays a significant role in the second innings, making bowling tougher and favoring chases. Pacers may get early movement, but variations become key; spinners find occasional grip. Teams batting first aim for 170–190+, but chasing is often easier. Expect another run-fest.

MIW vs GGW LIVE: Harman says
13/01/2026 19:15
We’re going to bowl first. I believe in dew, and especially when you’re playing late games, chasing is always a better option. I think we’re ticking all the areas. We’re discussing in the meetings and the bowlers are coming and executing their plans. I think while batting, the first six overs is something we’re really looking to go and bat positively. And now Hayley’s back, she’s fit, so hopefully we’ll click in that area as well. Unfortunately, Nat (Sciver-Brunt) is not well today, so in place of her, Hayley’s back. She’s someone who, you know, always does well with both bat and ball, and we’re really looking to, you know, have her come in and take responsibility for the team.
MIW vs GGW LIVE: Safe score?
13/01/2026 19:12
The Navi Mumbai pitch has been decent for batting, 180-190 should be reachable and GG batting has been in some decent form. Hopefully Devine show again tonight.

This batting-friendly venue at DY Patil, where high scores are common under lights with dew aiding chases, sets up a high-scoring thriller.

Gujarat Giants Women, under Ashleigh Gardner, have been unstoppable, winning both opening games convincingly. However, GGW will be wary of their bowling attack as they have let their opponents come close in both games despite posting 200+ totals in both games. Sophie Devine's explosive batting (including a near-century) and Gardner's dual impact have propelled them to the top of the points table.
