Smriti Mandhana’s Royal Challengers Bangalore Women will be up against Mumbai Indian Women in the penultimate match of Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 league stages in Mumbai on Tuesday (March 21). RCB Women are already out of the tournament and will not be progressing to the Playoffs stage after UP Warriorz win on Monday.
Mumbai Indians had a rare off day as they were beaten by nine wickets by Delhi Capitals on Monday. MI were asked to bat first after Delhi Capitals won the toss. The conditions early on were very challenging with there being both seam and swing for the pacers as MI were reduced to 21 for four.
Captain Harmanpreet Kaur then steadied the ship with Pooja Vastrakar, who returned to the starting 11. Harmanpreet was rock solid from one end while Vastrakar was freeflowing as she raced to 26 off 19 before being dismissed by Jess Jonassen.
Mumbai Indians can move back to the top of the table with a win over RCB Women and possibly book their place in the WPL 2023 Final as well.
