Preview: The Mumbai Indians Women have had another remarkable tournament and have already made it through to the playoffs and will be going into the match on the back of a thrilling win over the Gujarat Giants just a day back. However, this match will still be important for them since it could also fix a place in the final of the tournament for the second time in WPL history. MI-W have now won 5 of their seven games and will look to get to the top after winning this final game. On the other hand, the current WPL season has been terrible for the defending champions and they are currently at the bottom of the table with just two wins and five losses in their seven games. However, this will also be a chance for the team to take revenge on the Harmanpreet Kaur-led side who beat them in a thrilling game at home earlier in the season.
WPL 2025, 20th T20 Match, MI-W vs -RCB- W
Venue: Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai
Date & Time: Tuesday, March 11, 07:30 PM
Pitch Report: The Brabourne Stadium is said to be a batting paradise where huge totals are put on the board. The small dimensions do not help the bowlers’ cause as well. The skippers might prefer to bowl first on this wicket despite the game being won by the side batting first in the last encounter. This is a surface where runs can be scored and does not change much as the game progresses.
