    WPL 2026: Kerr Replaces Injured Carey For MI As Unchanged RCB Elect To Bowl First

    By IANS News January 26, 2026 • 19:26 PM View: 604
    Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Leg-spin bowling all-rounder Amelia Kerr has come in for injured seam-bowling all-rounder Nicola Carey in the Mumbai Indians line-up, as Royal Challengers Bengaluru elected to bowl first after winning the toss in the 2026 WPL clash at the BCA Stadium on Monday.

    RCB have already qualified for the playoffs, though their winning streak came to a halt against DC. Meanwhile, MI, with two wins from six games, remain in playoff contention thanks to a stronger net run rate. The sides met earlier in the opening game of the competition when RCB edged past MI on the last ball at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai.

    After winning the toss, RCB skipper Smriti Mandhana said her playing eleven is unchanged. “Dew has been a big factor at Baroda, and the wicket has played differently in almost every match. As a batting unit, it’s good to know what to expect. A lot of learnings, especially around batting, understanding and assessing situations quickly as a top order, and knowing what our par score is, and that’s going to be extremely important going forward in the tournament.
