MIW vs DCW Team Previews
Mumbai Indians Women
The Mumbai Indians Women have been the standout performers this season, winning each of their first 5 matches, and are the first to qualify for the next round. However, the team tasted their first defeat during their last outing, where they were overpowered by the UP Warriorz.
Just like their opponents, the Mumbai Indians have a strong batting line-up, with most of their batters in good form. Harmanpreet Kaur has been brilliant this season and has scored 3 half-centuries in her 6 innings. She has been ably aided by Nat Sciver-Brunt and Yastika Bhatia, who have rarely failed to score runs.
It is however Hayley Matthews who has garnered the most appreciation, and rightly so, for her all-round performance. She has scored 203 runs so far and has also picked up 11 wickets. The bowling has been one of the highlights of Mumbai’s performances this season, with 3 of the team’s bowlers featuring on the list of top-4 wicket-takers of the tournament.
The presence of all-rounders including Matthews, Sciver-Brunt, and Amelia Kerr gives the team a lot of versatility and captain Harmanpreet will be banking on them to put up another match-winning performance here. In addition to the spinners, the quicker bowlers have done a good job too, with Issy Wong and Sciver-Brunt picking up 13 wickets between them.

Delhi Capitals Women
Despite suffering a shock loss against the Gujarat Giants in their last outing, the Delhi Capitals Women are currently 2nd on the points table with 8 points, and they lead the Warriorz as well as the Giants by 4 points. A win here for them will ensure that there are no hiccups in their journey to the next stage as they have an excellent NRR of (+1.431).
Meg Lanning has led her team from the front, scoring 2 half-centuries and a total of 239 runs, and is the Purple Cap holder at this stage of the season. Along with an equally consistent Shafali Verma, Lanning has given her team some brilliant starts that have been the key to the Capitals’ success in the tournament.
Alice Capsey and Jemimah Rodrigues have stepped in wherever the need arose and has lent stability to the middle order, while the presence of Marizanne Kapp lends depth to the batting. However, the all-rounder hasn’t been consistent with the bat and has failed to give the late flourish at times.
The seamers have done a good job for the Capitals so far, with Marizanne Kapp, Shikha Pandey, and Tara Norris picking up 22 wickets between them. However, the two specialist spinners, Radha Yadav and Jess Jonassen have lacked consistency.
The Delhi Capitals will need a more disciplined bowling attack if they want to win here.

MIW vs DCW Betting Tips
While the Mumbai Indians did falter in their last match, that shouldn’t affect their confidence much. They have a well-balanced side with plenty of match-winners. While the Capitals have a strong batting line-up, they lack a bit in the bowling department and that might be the key differentiator here.
Bet on the Mumbai Indians Women to win.
