RCB-W vs GG-W Dream11 Prediction, Dream11 Playing XI, Today Match 9, WPL 2026

Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for Match 9 of the WPL 2026 between RCB-W vs GG-W to be played in Navi Mumbai.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) have started the fourth edition of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) with two consecutive wins. They beat Mumbai Indians (MI) and UP Warriorz (UPW) and moved to the top of the table. They will be keen to carry it to another win.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru will lock horns with Gujarat Giants in the next game at Dr. DY Patil Stadium on Friday. Nadine de Klerk, Grace Harris, and Lauren Bell have performed consistently in both games.

Gujarat Giants had two good wins to start the season, but they had a poor bowling display against Mumbai Indians, which cost them the game. Ash Gardner & Co. need strong bowling plans, as they have been below par in this department.
