Tue Mar 04 16:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Delhi Capitals Secure Playoff Spot in Thrilling WPL 2025
**Mumbai, March 7** – Delhi Capitals Women have become the first team to secure a playoff berth in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025, following a dominant Bengaluru leg. With two consecutive wins, they’ve amassed 10 points from seven matches, guaranteeing their place in the knockout stages. While their final game against Gujarat Giants will determine their final standing, even a loss wouldn’t necessarily eliminate them from contention.
The race for the remaining two playoff spots remains fiercely contested. Mumbai Indians, with eight points, are in a strong position, needing just two more wins to secure a top-three finish. A sweep of their remaining matches would almost certainly guarantee them a place in the final.
UP Warriorz and Royal Challengers Bangalore are currently tied on points (6), alongside Gujarat Giants. All three teams face a nail-biting finish. UP Warriorz, playing their remaining matches at home, need to win at least two of their three remaining games to have a strong chance at a playoff spot. Their performance against Gujarat Giants this week will be crucial.
Meanwhile, defending champions Royal Challengers Bangalore face an uphill battle after a four-match losing streak. They need to win both remaining matches to reach 8 points, but even that might not be enough, as net run rate could be the deciding factor. Their current net run rate is among the lowest in the tournament.
Gujarat Giants, currently last in the standings, are still mathematically alive. Victories in all three remaining games would secure their playoff berth, while winning at least two could still keep them in contention.
With six matches left in the round-robin stage, the final playoff spots remain uncertain, promising a thrilling conclusion to the WPL 2025 season. Net run rate is likely to play a crucial role in determining the final standings.
