WPL 2024, Match 14, UP Warriorz vs Mumbai Indians – Match Details, Live Streaming, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, Probable Playing XIs, Head-to-Head, Dream 11 Prediction

On Thursday, March 07, UP Warriorz will take on Mumbai Indians in Match 13 of the Women’s Premier League 2024 (WPL 2024) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, New Delhi. While Mumbai Indians’ condition isn’t too bad either, as they are in third position with three victories from five games, Up Warriorz are having difficulties with three losses from five games, which has left them in fourth place.

UP Warriorz, led by Alyssa Healy, are having a rollercoaster tournament. They are currently in fourth place with two wins and three defeats, racking up four points. They started off their campaign with two consecutive losses. Later, they registered two important wins over Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Giants. In their most recent encounter with RCB, they suffered yet another defeat. They would be aiming to turn their tables in this big encounter.

UP players like Alyssa Healy, Kiran Navgire, and Grace Harris have shown good form in batting. While Sophie Ecclestone has done a wonderful job in bowling. UP Warriorz have a strong set of players but have failed to showcase brilliant teamwork. A win over the defending champions may not help UP topple the Harmanpreet Kaur-led side on the table but it surely will put pressure on them.

On the other hand, Mumbai Indians, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, are in the third position in the tally with three wins and two defeats, bagging six points. MI started with two consecutive wins over Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Giants. However, they lost their third contest over UP Warriorz. In their fourth game, they registered a win over RCB by seven wickets. In their subsequent game, they suffered a defeat over Delhi Capitals by 29 runs.

MI lost to Delhi Capitals in their last match, with their bowlers facing challenges against Meg Lanning and Jemimah Rodrigues, but also had plenty of positives. Two uncapped players, Amonjot Kar and Sanjeevan Sajana played brilliantly, which kept Mumbai in the contest for the longest time. However, the team’s top order suffered a collapse on a good batting pitch, highlighting a need for improvement.

WPL 2024, Match 14, UP Warriorz vs Mumbai Indians – Key Players

UP Warriorz

1. Alyssa Healy – The UP Warriorz skipper Alyssa Healy is an explosive opener for UP Warriorz. She will be a challenging batter for MI. The wicketkeeper-batter produced her first half-century of the campaign against RCB and has now hit 121 runs from her last three innings.
2. Sophie Ecclestone  – Sophie Ecclestone is the leading wicket-taker for UP Warriorz and has been consistent in the tournament. The England-based player is yet to go wicketless in the tournament so far and got the big wicket of Ellyse Perry with the final ball of the last over in the last game.

Mumbai Indians

1. Amelia Kerr – Amelia Kerr has showcased an outstanding form for MI in the last few games of WPL 2024. The MI all-rounder could be one of the best players in this encounter as she has hit 135 runs and claimed seven wickets. She will aim for another fabulous knock and is expected to be a threat with both bat and ball again in this match.
2. Pooja Vastrakar  – The 24-year-old right-arm bowler got the big wicket of the well-set Meg Lanning in the last game and we will be targeting the key batters again in this fixture. Besides her bowling, Vastrakar has the potential to hit powerful shots at the lower-middle order. However, she has been more impressive and promising with the ball currently.
