MUM-W vs UP-W Pitch Report

The pitch at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium has historically favoured the batters. But in this tournament, we have seen that the spinners have been the dominant force. However, the general notion that chasing is the easier task at the venue has been firmed even more, as the team fielding first has had 75% of the games.

Fantasy Value from Pitch Report

  • Top-order batters from the team that chase a target will be safe picks for the game. 
  • The wicket tends to be slow in the first half. But as the game progresses, it gets better for batting. So, spinners from the team that bowls first will be risky but could be game-changing picks.
  • We saw some movement for the new-ball bowlers at the beginning of the innings. Hence, wicket-taking pacers could be good choices for the match. 


MUM-W vs UP-W Fantasy Cricket Tips

Scenario: Mumbai Indians Heavy Fantasy XI

  • The defending champions have been in brilliant form in the tournament. The skipper Harmanpreet Kaur has been in brilliant form with the bat and will be an important choice if you are backing Mumbai Indians. 
  • Shabnim Ismail has been the hero for the team with the new ball. She is picking up regular wickets with the new ball, and you cannot ignore him for the fantasy contests of the match. 
  • Saika Ishaque has not yet found her rhythm in the tournament. But she showed in the previous edition that she can be a real game-changer. So, Ishaque could be a risky but worthy choice for the game. 

Scenario: UP Warriorz Heavy Fantasy XI

  • UP Warriorz have been the most underperforming team in the tournament so far. Yet, one might risk picking up a Warrriorz-heavy fantasy XI for the grand leagues. In this case, Alyssa Healy will be an important choice as she needs to perform for the team to get back on track. 
  • Barring Healy, the two most important players in the line-up are Grace Harris and Tahlia McGrath. These all-rounders can be changers with both bat and ball and will be important choices in this scenario. 
  • The bowling of the Warriorz depends heavily on their spinners. Rajeshwari Gayakwad is the most experienced spinner in the line-up, and she will be a risky-worthy choice in this case. 


MUM-W vs UP-W Winner Predictions

The Mumbai Indians are looking unstoppable in the tournament. It will not be a surprise if they manage to win the match. But if UP Warriorz play to their full potential, they might pull out a surprise result in the game. 


MUM-W vs UP-W Top Player Picks

Harmanpreet Kaur (MUM-W)

The Mumbai Indians skipper has scored 101 runs in the tournament in just two innings. She looked calm and composed and has scripted two brilliant chases for the team. Kaur will be a must-pick for this match.

Shabnim Ismail (MUM-W)

The South African speedster has been in brilliant form with the ball. Shabnim Ismail is picking up regular wickets and should be the first name in your fantasy XI. 

Grace Harris (UP-W)

The Aussie all-rounder has been the only positive for the Warriorz batting line-up in the tournament. Grace Harris can also deliver with the ball and, hence, will be the most important pick from this team. 

Tahlia McGrath (UP-W)

Tahlia McGrath bowls in the powerplay and also in the death. While batting, she comes in at number three and will have the best chance of contributing the highest fantasy points to you. 


MUM-W vs UP-W Differential Picks

Hayley Matthews (MUM-W)

The West Indian skipper has not yet found her rhythm in the tournament. However, the last 12 months have been brilliant for her in the T20 format. So, it could be a matter of time before Hayley Matthews comes to her own.

Alyssa Healy (UP-W)

The Australian skipper has found it challenging to get going so far. However, she can be destructive at the top of the order. Healy's volatile nature of batting makes her a risky yet worthy choice for the game.


MUM-W vs UP-W Fantasy Expert Advice

Given how the wicket has behaved in the tournament and the strengths of the two teams a 1-3-3-4 combination will be ideal.
