Clinical Bowling Performance Restricts Gujarat Giants:

Mumbai Indians continued their winning streak in the Women’s Premier League 2024 by defeating Gujarat Giants in a dominating fashion. The defending champions, backed by stellar performances from veteran pacer Shabneem Ismail and leg-spinner Amelia Kerr, restricted Gujarat to a modest total of 126 runs for 9 wickets. Ismail impressed with figures of 3 wickets for 18 runs, while Kerr dismantled the middle and lower order, claiming 4 wickets for 17 runs.

Gujarat’s Struggles in Batting Display:

Gujarat Giants faced batting woes as only four players managed to reach double figures. Tanuja Kanwar, batting at number nine, emerged as the top scorer with 28 runs. A crucial 48-run partnership for the eighth wicket between Kanwar and Kathryn Bryce (25 not out) helped Gujarat post a somewhat competitive total. Captain Beth Mooney contributed 24 runs, and Ashley Gardner added 15 runs to the scorecard.

Despite a shaky start for Mumbai Indians, losing early wickets, Harmanpreet Kaur played a captain’s knock to guide her team to victory. With Yastika Bhatia and Hayley Mathews departing early with 7 runs each, Kaur anchored the innings, forming crucial partnerships. Nate Siver Brunt and Kaur added stability, followed by a standout 66-run partnership with Amelia Kerr for the fourth wicket. Kaur remained unbeaten with a match-winning 46 off 41 balls, securing the win for Mumbai Indians in the 19th over.

However, Kaur’s timely boundaries in the 18th and 19th overs sealed the victory for Mumbai Indians. With this triumph, Mumbai Indians achieved a hat-trick of victories against Gujarat in the ongoing Women’s Premier League 2024, showcasing their dominance in the tournament.
