WPL 2027 schedule at a glance

The official TATA WPL 2027 Season and Player Auction Dates Announced advisory confirms the 14 January to 7 February 2027 season window. The current WPL listing and public BCCI fixture data show all 22 rows, including the playoffs.

Five teams are named in the league calendar: Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Mumbai Indians, Gujarat Giants, UP Warriorz and Delhi Capitals. In the table below, the short forms are RCB, MI, GG, UPW and DC, respectively. Each team appears in eight league fixtures. The first 11 matches make up the Vadodara leg, and the remaining nine league matches move to Mumbai before the Eliminator and final.

All table times are Indian Standard Time. The official opener details show a 2:00 PM UTC start, equivalent to 7:30 PM IST.

Full WPL 2027 fixtures, dates, venues and timings

The complete 22-match schedule is below. The official WPL fixtures page for matches 1 to 12 and second fixtures page for matches 13 to 22 provide the sequence. A fresh Vadodara and Mumbai to host WPL 2027 from January 14 to February 7 report corroborates the two-city split and playoff dates.

There are no scheduled match rows on 25 January, 4 February or 6 February. Those dates are gaps in the published calendar, not omitted fixtures. Playoff participants remain TBC.

Vadodara leg: matches 1 to 11

Vadodara hosts the first 11 league fixtures, beginning with defending champions RCB against MI on 14 January and closing with UPW against GG on 24 January. The current WPL 2027 fixtures listing shows the opening sequence before Match 12 moves to Mumbai on 26 January, consistent with the fresh venue report.

This creates a compact opening phase in which all five teams appear before the schedule shifts west. For local ground context beyond the fixture list, readers can also use CricWin24's guide to BCA Stadium and Kotambi in Vadodara. That guide is linked for venue background only; the current WPL venue name in the verified schedule is Vadodara International Cricket Stadium.

Mumbai leg and the playoff dates

Mumbai begins the second phase on 26 January with MI against RCB. Matches 12 to 20 are league fixtures through 3 February at CCI / Brabourne Stadium, followed by the Eliminator on 5 February and final on 7 February. 4 February and 6 February have no scheduled match.

The source report describes nine Mumbai league games after the 11-game Vadodara leg and confirms 7:30 PM local starts. CCI and Brabourne Stadium refer to the same Mumbai ground in the schedule evidence, so the table uses one combined venue label.

Team-wise WPL 2027 schedules

League format and playoff qualification

The official 2027 calendar has 20 league fixtures among five teams. Each team plays eight matches, facing every other side twice. This is a double round-robin league stage, as the fixture table shows.

For background, BBC Sport's 2026 WPL format explainer describes the league's established qualification route. The top side goes straight to the final. The second- and third-placed teams play the Eliminator, whose winner takes the other final spot. This source explains the established format; the current official WPL/BCCI calendar confirms the 2027 fixture dates. It does not identify this season's playoff teams.

That distinction matters when reading the final two rows. No team can be named for the 5 February Eliminator or the 7 February final before the league standings are decided. Likewise, this schedule article does not turn the earlier WPL 2027 auction and squad-gaps preview into a current post-auction lineup report. That linked piece is historical pre-auction context, while this page records the current fixture calendar.
