MIW vs UPW – WPL Eliminator – Team Previews

Mumbai Indians Women

The Mumbai Indians franchise, owned by Mukesh Ambani, narrowly missed out on direct qualification for the finals after the Delhi Capitals defeated the UP Warriorz in their last group-stage game. Despite winning six of their eight games, the Mumbai Indians finished with 12 points in the points table.

The Harmanpreet Kaur-led team has been dominant in the tournament and boasts a talented group of all-rounders such as Nat Sciver-Brunt, Amelia Kerr and Harmanpreet Kaur herself who have contributed significantly. Kaur has been in good form, scoring 230 runs in 8 matches at a strike rate of nearly 150, and is expected to deliver a big performance during the playoffs.

The Mumbai Indians also have strong batting depth, with even players like Pooja Vastrakar and Issy Wong contributing with handy cameos down the order. Hayley Matthews has also been a key player for them with the ball, taking 12 wickets with her off-spin.

UP Warriorz Women

The UP Warriorz secured third place in the points table after winning four out of eight matches, with their playoff spot confirmed after a crucial victory over the Giants.

The middle order has been the backbone of their batting lineup, contributing 663 runs out of their total score of 1161, the highest among all teams in the WPL. Tahlia McGrath and Grace Harris have been instrumental in this success, both scoring over 200 runs. In terms of bowling, the team has been well-rounded with contributions from Sarvani and Parshavi Chopra in addition to experienced players like Rajeshwari Gayakwad and Deepti.

Sophie Ecclestone has been particularly impressive, taking wickets in every match she has played and even displaying her batting skills under pressure. The team will look to include Grace Harris, who missed their last league game due to a minor injury, back into the starting XI for the playoffs.
