WPL Match Update
Parthiv Patel, a WPL expert for Sports18 and JioCinema, believes it is exactly the start the tournament needed and there is more to come. “After losing the toss, it was very important for Mumbai Indians to have a good start, especially during the powerplay and they did exactly that.
It is a big stage for women’s cricket and everybody, including the players was eagerly waiting for this. Hence, I am sure everybody was nervous. But it was important for the tournament to get off to a good start. Mumbai Indians did it very well, had an explosive start and we are sure there will be more interesting games in the coming days.”

Patel also spoke highly of Harmanpreet’s captaincy and batting. “The captaincy was great from Harmanpreet and there is no doubt about that. Especially, the field placements were on point. More importantly, when it looked like Gujarat Giants can’t win from a point, she used all her players. As a batter, she was exceptional as well — the way she found the gaps and displayed her power hitting. She has always been known for her power hitting, but her timing today was noteworthy.” added Patel.
