In a thrilling conclusion to the Women’s Uttarakhand Premier League 2026, the Dehradun Warriors emerged victorious against the Mussoorie Queens, winning by 15 runs. The final match took place on Thursday at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Dehradun. The Warriors successfully defended their total of 115 runs for 9 wickets, showcasing a strong performance throughout the match.
Neelam Bhardwaj was adjudged Player of the Match in the final and also named Player of the Tournament for her outstanding all-round contribution throughout Women’s UPL 2026. But Garima was dismissed in the 18th over, leaving Mussoorie Queens needing 29 runs from 13 balls. Mussoorie Queens eventually lost the final as they were restricted to 100/7 in the 20 overs. Amisha Bahukhandi was the pick of the bowlers picking 3 wickets. Karry, who scored 15, also departed soon after, leaving the Warriors in early trouble. Dehradun Warriors held their nerve in the closing overs and prevented Mussoorie Queens from completing the chase, securing victory in the Women’s UPL 2026 final and lifting the title.
But the side eventually lost the final as the pressure mounting just like how we in international matches. Dehradun Warriors made a poor start to their innings as captain and wicketkeeper-batter Shweta Mohan Verma was dismissed for a duck by Nisha Mishra. However, Garima Vashisth and Dipika Chand revived Mussoorie Queens’ hopes with a crucial partnership.
