New Delhi: Mumbai Indians (MI) will clash with Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in match number 4 of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 at the Brabourne Stadium on Monday (March 6).
MI vs RCB
Harmanpreet Kaur-led Mumbai Indians registered their first win of the tournament when they thrashed Gujarat Giants in the first game of the league by 143 runs. On the other hand, Smriti Mandhana’s RCB will look to bounce back after they faced defeat by Delhi Capitals in their tournament opener.

Previous match comparison
After the first win, MI will look up to carry forward the winning momentum. Captain Harmanpreet led her team from the front, courtesy of her blistering 65 off 30 balls.
RCB captain Smriti Mandhana will be expecting a lot better bowling unit on Monday against Mumbai Indians. In the last match, Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma completely destroyed them and the RCB bowlers had no answers to that.
Five of the seven bowlers that they used conceded at a rate of more than 9 runs per over as Megan Schutt (11.2), Heather Knight (13.3) Sophie Devine (20) all were thumped by the Delhi duo.
