Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Mumbai Indians (MI) will lock horns in the ninth match of Women's Premier League (WPL) 2024 on Saturday (March 2) at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
After the list-less bowling attack conceded 194/5 against DC, Mandhana (72 off 43) tried to take the side within reach until the opposition bowlers struck at crucial junctures to restrict RCB to 169/9 in their allotted 20 overs. MI, on the other hand, rode on Hayley Matthews' fifty to set a target of 162, which UP Warriorz made light work of thanks to the quick-fire fifty by Kiran Navgire and a cameo by Grace Harris.
