In the WPL 2024 match on Tuesday, the Mumbai Indians Women will face the Royal Challengers Women. A win is crucial for both teams as Harmanpreet Kaur’s MI is aiming for a direct entry into the final by winning today’s clash. On the other hand, a win for RCB today will confirm their spot in the playoffs, though they won’t be able to secure a direct entry to the final.
If RCB wins tonight, UP Warriorz and Gujarat Giants will officially be knocked out of the playoffs race. However, if the Mumbai Indians win, it could create a twist in the scenario. In such a case, the last league match scheduled between the Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Giants will hold importance.
RCB has faced defeats in both of their matches played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Previously, they played at their home ground, Chinnaswamy Stadium, where they managed to win three out of five games. Conversely, the Mumbai Indians are aiming for their third consecutive victory.
MI-W vs BAN-W Pitch Report
The Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi is set to host the MI-W vs BAN-W match. The short boundaries at this venue tend to favor the batters. However, in recent matches, the pitch has exhibited a slow nature, posing challenges in scoring against spinners. In the most recent WPL match, UP Warriorz utilized spinners extensively, bowling 17 overs with spinners against Gujarat Giants. The toss winner in the MI-W vs RCB-W match is expected to bat first.
