What is the pitch report for GUJ-W vs MI-W, Women’s Premier League 2023, Match 1?

It’s a typical Mumbai wicket that assists the batters throughout the game having said there will be swing and seam movement in the initial overs. The outfield is lightning quick which makes it difficult to defend the targets. Bowling first is a good option.

Pre-Match Analysis:

Gujarat Giants Women did well in the auction to pick renowned overseas players Sophia Dunkley, Ashleigh Gardner, Beth Mooney, and Georgia Wareham. Barring Sneh Rana and Harleen Deol they don’t have other quality Indian players in the squad which puts them slightly on the back foot ahead of the 1st game. The 16-year-old all-rounder Hurley Gala who is in the limelight is the player to watch out for. Beth Mooney has been given the responsibility to lead the side and she is likely to don the gloves behind the stumps as well.

Mumbai Indians Women has a strong set of overseas all-rounders with the likes of Natalie Sciver, Amelia Kerr, Hayley Matthews, and Chloe Tryon which makes them one of the top contenders to win the inaugural edition. Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur will be leading the star-studded line-up. Yastika Bhatia and Pooja Vastrakar are the familiar faces in the side. The overall outcome for them is totally dependent on how well the Indian players going to perform in this league. They have the backing of the crowd as they will be playing all their matches in Mumbai.
