Team news
Mumbai Indians (MI)
The defending champions look formidable. Harmanpreet Kaur and Nat Sciver-Brunt are in sublime touch, both coming off match-winning half-centuries against the Delhi Capitals.
The return of Hayley Matthews from a minor injury has bolstered the opening slot, while Amelia Kerr remains their tactical ace, contributing with both leg-spin and middle-order stability.
The bowling unit, led by the evergreen Shabnim Ismail has been clinical in the powerplay.
However, their last defeat against the UP Warriorz would certainly haunt them, and they would look to be more clinical in this repeat clash.
UP Warriorz (UPW)
It has been a tough start for the new-look Warriorz under coach Abhishek Nayar. Despite a mega-auction revamp, they remain winless after three games. The biggest concern is the "retired out" controversy surrounding Harleen Deol in the previous match, which sparked a middle-order collapse.
On the positive side, Meg Lanning has found her rhythm with a recent fifty, and Phoebe Litchfield continues to be their most aggressive batter.
They need more from their Indian core, particularly Deepti Sharma to support the overseas stars. However, Harleen Deol’s recent unbeaten 64 off 39 balls would give them hope against a strong Mumbai Indians, once again.
Possible lineups
Mumbai Indians (MI): Hayley Matthews, Gunalan Kamalini (wk), Nat Sciver-Brunt, Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Amelia Kerr, Nicola Carey, Sajeevan Sajana, Amanjot Kaur, Sanskriti Gupta, Shabnim Ismail, Saika Ishaque.
UP Warriorz (UPW): Meg Lanning (c), Kiran Navgire, Phoebe Litchfield, Harleen Deol, Deepti Sharma, Shweta Sehrawat (wk), Deandra Dottin, Sophie Ecclestone, Shikha Pandey, Asha Sobhana, Kranti Gaud.
