Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 table-toppers Mumbai Indians Women team will begin the second half of the T20 league with a clash against Sneh Rana’s Gujarat Giants in Match No. 12 at the Brabourne Stadium on Tuesday (March 14). Harmanpreet Kaur’s MI are the only unbeaten team in the WPL so far, having won all four of their matches so far.
The Giants, on the other hand, have managed to win just one match – against the Royal Challengers Bangalore Women – and also lost their regular skipper Beth Mooney due to injury. The Gujarat side will have an uphill task in stopping the Mumbai juggernaut in their next match.
Skipper Harmanpreet has been in top form with the bat, with two fifties – including one in their last match – in four matches so far in WPL 2023. MI pacer Issy Wong has also had a wonderful time in the league so far, emerging as their most economical bowler and picking wickets at regular intervals as well.

MI-W vs GUJ-W Pitch Report
The surface at the Brabourne stadium will help the batters dominate. It’s flat in nature and thus, has very little for the bowlers. Batting first will be ideal and anything above 170 will be a good total here.
MI-W vs GUJ-W Probable Best Performers
Probable best batter
Hayley Matthews:
The 24-year-old Hayley Matthews has been brilliant so far in the tournament, scoring 168 runs in four matches. The opener is currently the fourth-leading run-scorer and if she manages to display the brand of cricket, it will be a long and tough night for the Gujarat bowlers.
Probable best bowler
Saika Ishaque:
Saika Ishaque is arguably the one of the best finds of the tournament. In four matches, the spinner has picked up 12 wickets and is the leading wicket-taker of the competition currently.
Coming to Mumbai, they have been sensational so far. Be it with the bat or the ball, the team has looked sharp and has been ready to take on any opponent. In their last match against UP Warriorz, skipper Harmanpreet registered her second half-century of the campaign while Nat Sciver-Burnt and Yastika Bhatia were in excellent touch as well. With the ball, Saika Ishaque has been playing some phenomenal cricket and the Kolkata-born cricketer looks set to make her debut for the national team.
