Royal Challengers Bangalore Women (RCB-W): RCB Women faced their initial defeat of the year’s WPL on Thursday, falling short by 25 runs against Delhi Capitals Women. However, securing a victory in the upcoming match would elevate them to the top of the table, a plausible outcome considering their capabilities.

Mumbai Indians Women (MI-W): Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians Women encountered a formidable UP Warriorz Women’s team in their previous game, leading to their first loss. Despite this setback, their squad’s talent suggests they have the potential to rebound with a victory.

Despite being only the second team to win a match while batting first in this year’s competition on Thursday, we anticipate that both teams will opt to field first in this match.

In the matches held on Wednesday and Thursday, we observed several high scores on this pitch, indicating another high-scoring clash is likely on Saturday. Whichever team bats first will strive to post a total of 185 runs or more.

The start of the match is anticipated to see plenty of cloud cover before gradually clearing up later. It will be a warm Saturday evening, with temperatures ranging from the low thirties to the high twenties.
