The Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2024 is set to witness a high-voltage encounter as Mumbai Indians prepare to take on UP Warriorz in Match 14 on Thursday, March 7, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.

The upcoming game will be a rematch filled with intrigue and excitement, given UP's previous win over Mumbai, where they emerged victorious with a comfortable margin of seven wickets.

Despite facing a recent loss with a 29-run defeat against Delhi Capitals, Mumbai Indians Women find themselves in a respectable third position on the points table with three victories and two losses. As they gear up for this crucial matchup, here’s a look at MI’s probable playing XI against UP Warriorz.


Mumbai Indians’ Probable XI vs UP Warriorz

The team is expected to lean on the dynamic duo of Hayley Matthews and Yastika Bhatia to kickstart the innings. Matthews, who recently notched up a rapid 29 off 17 balls against Delhi, alongside Bhatia, despite her modest tally of 6 in the same match, are expected to be crucial figures at the top of the order.

The middle order is anticipated to be a bastion of strength with Nat-Sciver Brunt, skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, and Amelia Kerr, all of whom are waiting in the wings to unleash their fury. 

Despite a collective failure in their last outing, their reputation as match-winners speaks volumes, which means that it’s only a matter of time before they strike back with vengeance.

Pooja Vastrakar, Amanjot Kaur, and S Sajana are slated to bolster the lower middle order, following their commendable performances against Delhi. 

Vastrakar’s all-around skills, Amanjot’s explosive batting, and Sajana’s crucial contributions will be key ingredients for a recipe of success.

Rounding off the squad, Shabnim Ismail, Humaira Kazi, and Saika Ishaque are expected to shoulder the bowling responsibilities. However, with Ismail’s disappointing performance in the last game, Issy Wong’s stellar shows position her as a strong candidate to step into the fray.
