MI Women have posted a competitive total, though whether it’s enough remains to be seen, especially with dew expected to come into play later. Lauren Bell set the tone early with an excellent opening spell, repeatedly troubling Melie Kerr with her movement away from the bat. Kerr looked increasingly frustrated, beaten several times, before Bell eventually removed her inside the powerplay. Nat Sciver-Brunt couldn’t last long either, stumped in the seventh over to leave MI under pressure. Harmanpreet Kaur and Kamalini then put together a vital partnership to steady the innings and restore some momentum. Sajana and Carey added pivotal runs for the fifth wicket, with Sajana making the most of two reprieves. Dropped twice by the RCB fielders, she accelerated at the death to push MI beyond the 150-run mark.

Completely contrasting starts for both teams. Mumbai Indians couldn't score a single run in the opening over, and RCB are already up and running with 11 on the board. And here's the fastest bowler in women's cricket. Shabnim Ismail will share the attack from the opposite end.
