The score was 80 for one wicket in 9 overs, yet UP could score 142 runs. UP Warriors managed to put up a total of 142 runs while batting first, with Grace Harris and Vrinda Dinesh being the only two players to make a significant impact, scoring 45 and 33 runs respectively. Their 79-run partnership was a highlight of the innings, but it’s worth noting that 6 out of the 11 batsmen who took to the crease for UP failed to even reach double figures. Nat Cyver-Brant was the pick of the bowlers for Mumbai, taking 3 wickets, while Sanskriti Gupta, Shabnim Ismail, Haley Mathews, and Amelia Kerr chipped in with 2 and 1 wickets each.
Mumbai Indians had won the toss and chosen to bowl first, and their bowlers did a decent job of restricting the UP batsmen. After the early loss of the first wicket, Harris and Dinesh steadied the ship with their partnership, but the team’s innings stalled towards the end, losing the last 5 wickets for just 24 runs.
One team will put a hat-trick of victory. Both Mumbai Indians and UP Warriors are coming into this match on the back of two consecutive wins, so the victory of one team will bring an end to the other’s winning streak. The Mumbai Indians team has won both their previous matches in WPL 2025, while UP Warriors have also registered two consecutive wins, with their previous match against RCB going down to the super over. The team that wins this match will not only complete a hat-trick of victories but also move to the top of the points table.
