Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: And That's a warp

Mumbai Indians have put on a completely dominant performance, making a spectacular start in the WPL. This achievement would have been beyond their wildest dreams, leaving them absolutely overjoyed! Unfortunately, it has been a nightmare for the Gujarat Giants. After losing the toss and being put into bat, Mumbai Indians ticked off most of the boxes with impressive performances from Sciver-Brunt, Matthews, Harmanpreet, and Kerr. Their score of above 200 put immense pressure on Gujarat, causing them to crumble. Adding to their misery, Mooney's injury in the first over left them already struggling. They lost 4 wickets within the powerplay, further pushing them back, from which they couldn't recover. Only two batters managed to score in double digits, telling the story of their defeat. The star of the match for Mumbai was Saika Ishaque with her impressive 4-fer.

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Thumping Win

Saika Ishaque has achieved a four-fer and is ecstatic! She delivers a quick delivery on a length around off, with sharp spin causing Monica Patel to attempt a pull but miss, resulting in the ball hitting the top of the leg. Unfortunately, Mooney won't be able to bat again due to a knee injury, and the match concludes. Mumbai Indians have made an impressive start to the WPL.

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: GG in big trouble

The game is becoming one-sided and MI is clearly relishing their advantage. They are bowling flatter and aiming at the stumps. Sutherland tried to pull the ball but missed, and it hit her thigh-pad before smashing into the leg-stump. As a result, the Gujarat Giants' chase is unraveling.

4 March 2023, 22:02 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Mumbai Indians On Top

The Giants are experiencing a disastrous situation at the moment. The ball was delivered full and was swinging back into the right-hander. Meghana was rooted to the crease as she attempted an extravagant flick shot. The ball might have brushed the back-thigh, but it went on to crash into the middle-stump. The Giants are now five wickets down for only three runs, and with the captain injured, their situation at the DY Patil Stadium is going from bad to worse.

4 March 2023, 22:01 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Another Duck

The Giants are facing a massive collapse in Mumbai. The ball was delivered short of a good length and was well wide of the off-stump. Gardner saw the width and went for a hard cut shot, but unfortunately, she got a thick edge. Matthews caught the ball with ease, and it was directed straight at her face. Gardner's dismissal resulted in a duck, and the Giants are now in a substantial hole.

4 March 2023, 21:56 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Harleen Deol Out For Duck

Harleen has fallen victim to a big leading edge and has holed out to third man. The ball was on a good length, angling into the pads, and Harleen was a bit early into the flick. She closed the bat-face, resulting in a big edge that carried comfortably through to Wong at third man. MI has begun their bowling innings well, and the early wicket puts the Giants in a precarious position.

4 March 2023, 21:49 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Mooney Gets Retired Hurt

It appears that Mooney may have twisted her ankle while turning back. She seems to be in significant pain after injuring herself during the run. The physio has been called to attend to her, and the Gujarat Giants skipper looks visibly uncomfortable. Mooney is walking off the field, and this could be a significant setback for the team. As the captain and the best batter of the team, everyone is hoping that her injury is not serious.

4 March 2023, 21:38 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Hayley Mathews on MI's batting

It was a really good wicket, the ball is coming on well and you can play some good cricket shots. It was one of those days when everything came out well. We wanted to get above 160-180, so happy with the score, time for the bowlers to go out there and do the job. Not really (when asked if there was any dew), we have some good plans as a spinner, need to be accurate and keep the run-rate going up.

4 March 2023, 21:37 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: MI Post Huge Total

The WPL has kicked off in style with an outstanding batting performance from the Mumbai Indians, resulting in a substantial score on the scoreboard. Kanwar managed to dismiss Yastika early in her first over, but the experienced international duo of Matthews and Sciver-Brunt played brilliantly, providing a solid start during the powerplay. However, Wareham managed to dismiss Sciver-Brunt, and soon after, Matthews missed out on her fifty. The real carnage began after the 10th over when Kaur took charge and dominated the bowlers, hitting them to all parts of the ground. Kerr also played exceptionally well, providing excellent support to Kaur during her magnificent innings.

4 March 2023, 21:21 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Harmanpreet Kaur's Magic Ends

Kaur's magnificent innings has come to an end, having illuminated the first game of WPL with her exceptional strokeplay. She came down the track to a tossed up ball outside off and attempted to hit it over covers, but unfortunately, she only managed to get a thick outside edge. Hemalatha, positioned at backward point, caught the ball easily. Kaur received a well-deserved round of applause from the home crowd for her impressive performance.

4 March 2023, 21:12 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Harmanpreet Kaur Hits Fifty in 22 Balls

The over bowled by left-arm pacer Monica Patel began with a four from Amelia Kerr, but it was Harmanpreet Kaur who truly made her mark by hitting four consecutive boundaries. The over resulted in a total of 21 runs, making it the most expensive over of the innings thus far.

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Back-to-back Wickets For Gujarat

MI has suffered another significant setback, with both of their established batters being dismissed. Gardner bowled an off-break that Matthews tried to cut by going back, but the ball slid through with the angle and spun past the inside edge, hitting the top of off-stump and forcing Matthews to leave the field.

4 March 2023, 20:43 PM

Live Mumbai Indians vs Gujarat Giants: Mumbai Indians' Lose 2nd Wicket

The Giants have just taken an important wicket, as Sciver-Brunt is always valuable regardless of the game format. The ball was tossed up invitingly around off, tempting Sciver-Brunt to come down the pitch and attempt a lofted drive. However, she got too close to the ball and couldn't generate enough elevation on the shot, resulting in Sneh taking a comfortable catch to her right at mid-off. Despite this pair looking in excellent form, their partnership has been broken.
