Crucial Phase for MI Women

MI Women would be targeting a score in excess of 180 runs which would give them some sort of chance to win this eliminator. All eyes would be on Nat Sciver-Brunt where the right-handed batter needs to get make the most of the start as it won’t be easy for the new batter to dominate the terms.

UP Warriorz skipper Alyssa Healy would sense that a couple of wickets can put them in the ascendancy. The pitch doesn’t seem to have any significant demons where defending won’t be easy for MI Women against a lethal UP Warriorz batting lineup.
