MATCH PREVIEW     

It is the business stage of the Women's Premier League 2025. Mumbai Indians Women will be up against Gujarat Giants Women in the WPL 2025 Eliminator as both teams look to book a berth in the final. The Mumbai Indians Women went down against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their last league game, and the team is looking to overcome that defeat. They have an excellent record against the Gujarat Giants Women, which will add to their confidence and odds of winning. The Gujarat Giants went down against Mumbai Indians in their last game and need to pull up their socks. It is a do-or-die contest for both teams, and we expect a thriller.  

Mumbai Indians Women Preview     

The Mumbai Indians Women wouldn't have liked entering the knockout stage with a loss. However, Harmanpreet Kaur and her side suffered an 11-run loss in the last game against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women. They have never lost a game against Gujarat Giants Women in the past and shall start the game as favorites on cricket betting sites. Kaur would like to build on that record and book a berth in the final.     

Hayley Matthews and Amelia Kerr are experienced batters, and the team expects a strong start from this pair. Nat Sciver-Brunt is the leading scorer this season and will look to build partnerships with Harmanpreet Kaur and Amanjot Kaur. The team has depth in the batting and expects a good show from Sanjeevan Sajana and Yastika Bhatia in the lower-middle order.  

The bowling attack took a beating in the last game. Shabnim Ismail has struggled with consistency, and the team needs early wickets from her and Nat Sciver-Brunt. Hayley Matthews and Amanjot Kaur are key bowlers for the team and need to bowl tight spells in the middle overs. Amelia Kerr, Sanskriti Gupta, and Parunika Sisodia will look to do well in the supporting role.  

Expected Starting XI for Mumbai Indians Women     

Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Hayley Matthews, Amelia Kerr, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Amanjot Kaur, Yastika Bhatia (wk), Sajeevan Sajana, G Kamalini, Sanskriti Gupta, Shabnim Ismail, Parunika Sisodia 

Gujarat Giants Women Preview      

Ashleigh Gardner and her team must go into this game with determination. They lost their last league game against Mumbai and have not won against them in the last three seasons. The odds are low for the team on cricket betting apps, and Gardner would look to lead from the front and take her team to their maiden final.  

Beth Mooney hasn't been at her best this season and will look to deliver a good start in this game with Kashvee Gautam. Harleen Deol has done well this season and will look to build partnerships in the middle order with Phoebe Litchfield. Deandra Dottin has done well in the finisher's role and must do well in the lower middle order with Bharti Fulmali.  

The bowling attack must be on the money against a strong group of players that Mumbai Indians Women have. The team needs Deandra Dottin and Tanuja Kanwar to pick early wickets. Kashvee Gautam and Priya Mishra must keep the scoring in check in the middle overs. Gardner adds depth to the attack along with Meghna Singh.  

Expected Starting XI for Gujarat Giants Women     

Ashleigh Gardner (c), Beth Mooney (wk), Harleen Deol, Deandra Dottin, Kashvee Gautam, Simran Shaikh, Phoebe Litchfield, Bharti Fulmali, Tanuja Kanwar, Meghna Singh, Priya Mishra 

TOSS: To Bowl First      

In this tournament, the side chasing the score always has an advantage. Having a target score in mind allows teams to pace their innings. It is a high-pressure contest, and both teams would like to follow the trend and bowl first in this game.  

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS      

We expect clear skies over Mumbai. It will be a typical Brabourne track where the ball will come onto the bat nicely, allowing batters to play their strokes. Fast bowlers won't have much assistance on this track, but the spinners will do well. The team batting first will need 170 on the board to feel confident.  

OUR PREDICTION      

Gujarat Giants Women will face a herculean challenge. They have lost all games against the Mumbai Indians Women in the last three seasons. The bowling attack will decide the team's fate, as Mumbai has a strong batting lineup. Mumbai Indians Women play at home and have firepower in their batting. They perform well in crunch games and shall start favorites to win this game.  

Our prediction is for Mumbai Indians Women to win
