Defending champions and two-time winners Mumbai Indians will take on Gujarat Giants in a crucial Friday encounter, with the Giants aiming to secure a second consecutive Women’s Premier League playoff spot.
Gujarat Giants, with eight points and a negative Net Run Rate (NRR) of -0.271, sit two points ahead of Mumbai Indians (six points, NRR +0.146).
The Giants hold their fate in their own hands, with a win over Harmanpreet Kaur’s Mumbai Indians securing their spot in the WPL playoffs.
MI will be riding high after dominating one of the tournament’s top teams, RCB, for most of their last match, ultimately winning by 15 runs. For MI, having the best NRR among the teams vying for the playoffs is a significant advantage. In the event of a points tie, a superior NRR would see MI through.
