MI-W
vs
RCB-W
Team
News,
Injury
Update:

Mumbai
Indians:

Mumbai
Indians
have
already
shown
their
firepower
with
both
bat
and
ball
while
Royal
Challengers
Bangalore
were
guilty
of
giving
away
too
many
runs
in
their
last
match.

Mumbai
Indians
banking
on
batting:

MI-W
showed
a
blistering
batting
display
in
the
last
match
as
Hayley
Matthews,
Harmanpreet
Kaur
and
Amelia
Kerr
caused
havoc
against
the
Giants.
Against
RCB-W,
they
would
be
hoping
to
keep
the
template
the
same
and
work
on
their
strength.
They
have
a
fully
fit
squad
as
they
take
on
the
Bangalore
women.

With
an
elite
batting
lineup
that
they
have,
MI-W
can
be
a
force
going
forward
in
this
WPL.

Saika
Ishaque
and
bowling
weapons:

Mumbai
were
clinical
with
their
bowling
as
well
in
the
last
match.
Issy
Wong
and
Nat
Sciver-Brunt
were
outstanding
with
the
ball
but
the
real
surprise
was
Saika
Ishaque.
The
Indian
left-arm
spinner
picked
up
4
wickets
in
the
match
and
showed
amazing
skill
and
control
on
her
debut
against
a
decent
Gujarat
unit.

Harmanpreet
will
be
banking
a
lot
on
Ishaque
while
would
expect
their
bowlers
to
show
the
same
accuracy
and
discipline
in
the
RCB
match
as
well.
Apart
from
that,
MI
also
have
the
likes
of
Pooja
Vastrakar,
Amelia
Kerr
who
are
known
for
their
bowling
as
well.

Royal
Challengers
Bangalore:

RCB-W
will
be
aiming
to
come
back
strong
in
their
second
game
after
a
losing
start
to
their
campaign.

RCB-W
need
discipline
with
ball:

RCB-W
captain
Smriti
Mandhana
will
be
expecting
a
lot
better
bowling
display
on
Monday
against
Mumbai
Indians.
In
the
last
match,
Meg
Lanning
and
Shafali
Verma
completely
decimated
them
and
the
RCB
bowlers
had
no
answers
to
that.
Five
of
the
seven
bowlers
that
they
used
conceded
at
a
rate
of
more
than
9
runs
per
over
as
Megan
Schutt
(11.2),
Heather
Knight
(13.3)m
Sophie
Devine
(20)
all
were
thumped
by
the
Delhi
duo.

They
will
have
to
rectify
the
mistakes
as
they
need
a
stronger
bowling
display
against
a
strong
MI-W
batting
lineup.

Team
News:
Dane
van
Niekerk
to
come
in?

In
terms
of
team
selection,
there
may
be
a
change
as
Dane
van
Niekerk
can
come
in
for
Sophie
Devine.
The
South
African
is
a
decent
player
and
RCB
can
try
her
out
against
Mumbai
Indians.

RCB
can
also
bring
in
young
Indian
pacer
Komal
Zanzad
in
the
team
in
place
of
someone
like
Preeti
Bose,
who
was
mostly
ineffective
in
the
last
match.

Pitch
Report
MI-W
vs
RCB-W:

The
Brabourne
Stadium’s
pitch
has
been
a
belter
so
far
in
this
WPL.
In
the
first
match
on
Sunday,
386
runs
were
scored
in
40
overs
and
the
top
was
perfect
for
batting.
It
will
be
pretty
much
the
same
on
Monday
as
batters
can
expect
to
play
through
their
lines.
Winning
the
toss
and
batting
will
be
the
perfect
decision
as
pitch
may
slow
down
a
bit
at
latter
stages.
