Mumbai Indians (MI-W) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB-W) will square off in the fourth game of the Women’s Premier League in 2023 at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. The Smriti Mandhana-led team will be coming off a defeat from their first game, while the Harmanpreet Kaur-led team won decisively in their season opener against Gujarat Giants.
On Sunday, March 5, Bangalore lost their season opener against Delhi Capitals at the same location, and they are now searching for their first triumph. Mumbai, on the other hand, will be trying to secure another victory and keep the tournament winning streak going. Mumbai isn’t likely to make any changes to their lineup, butBangalore may try to change the starting XI.

Location: Mumbai’s Brabourne Stadium

MI-W vs. RCB-W Review of Pitch
There will be two high-scoring fields used during the WPL 2023. The batsmen in the first two games’ opening innings were completely berserk, and the third game will likely follow suit. If the captain chooses to bat first after winning the toss, they may do so to gain an early advantage if they take into account the advantage enjoyed by the batters in the first few innings.
Mumbai Indians Women (MI-W): Hayley Matthews, Yastika Bhatia (wk), Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Nat Sciver-Brunt, Amelia; Royal Challengers Bangalore Women (RCB-W):Amanjot Kaur, Humaira Kazi, Issy Wong, Jintimani Kalita, Saika Ishaque, Kerr, Pooja Vastrakar
Smriti Mandhana (c), Sophie Devine, Heather Knight, Disha Kasat, Ellyse Perry, Richa Ghosh (wk), Kanika Ahuja, Asha Shobana, Poonam Khemnar, Megan Schutt, and Renuka Thakur are the players for Royal Challengers Bangalore Women (RCB-W).
