The Capitals have enjoyed a decent season so far where they have won two and lost one out of the three games they have played. Meg Lanning and her troupe have already shown their spirit and resilience in the Vadodara leg and will now want to continue it in the Bengaluru leg as well.
Speaking of the Warriorz, it has so far been a disappointing tournament for them where they have lost both their matches against the Gujarat Giants Women and the Delhi franchise. They will want to get back to winning ways in the upcoming match and get some points on the table. This will be a great opportunity to get some wins under their belt.

Pitch report
The Chinnaswamy Stadium at Bengaluru has always been a batting paradise and it has been a nightmare for the bowlers. The small dimensions give the batters a lot of confidence to pick their spots and find the boundaries. This is enough for the skippers to choose to bowl first and chase down targets.
