About WPL 2024
The entire season will be held in Bengaluru and Delhi with the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi hosting the Eliminator and Final on March 15 and 17 respectively.
AdvertisementA total of 22 matches will be held in the WPL this year with the table-toppers directly making the final. The second and third placed will lock horns in the Eliminator.
The upcoming season of WPL will only have single headers, with all matches beginning at 7:30 PM IST.
Mumbai Indians skipper Harmanpreet Kaur feels adapting to different conditions will be vital to defending the title in the upcoming season of WPL.
"The conditions in Bengaluru will be different than Mumbai. I don't have much experience of playing in Delhi, so I don't have any idea how the wickets will fare in Delhi," Harmanpreet told PTI TV on the sidelines of WPL's pre-season media conference last week.
"If we can just quickly adapt to these things, this will show how good we are as a team. These are the areas we have to keep in mind and accordingly change our game plan," she said.
