Harmanpreet Kaur's brute power will meet its match in Alyssa Healy's languid elegance when Mumbai Indians square off against UP Warriorz in the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2023 Eliminator at the DY Patil Stadium on March 24. Kaur and Co. were off the blocks at such a fiery pace that it seemed none could come close to challenging them. But two defeats in the last three matches saw them losing a direct qualification spot for the grand finale. Furthermore, it laid bare the gaps in Mumbai's Playing XI, much to the dismay of their talismanic captain.

The likes of Hayley Matthews and Amelia Kerr have been exceptional in all departments of the game and will look to sustain their red-hot form and seal a spot in the final. The UP Warriorz will ride on their magnificent bowling display and will rely on Tahlia McGrath and Alyssa Healy to step up with the bat.
