Speaking at the toss, Meg Lanning said, “We are going to have a bowl tonight. That seems to be work at this venue. It is about tonight and playing well.”
“We know we have to play our best to win the competition. We have great depth and don’t rely on 1-2 players, different players have stepped up and I feel we have done that.”
“There is little bit in the wicket early on and we have two good new ball bowlers. Same team,” concluded Meg Lanning.
Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians captain Harmanpreet Kaur said, “It is a good wicket to bat on. We saw in the previous game on this pitch where 180+ was scored.”
“We are okay to bat first. We have to enjoy our cricket. Few of our batters are in good form and we want them to keep going. We are going with the same XI.”
