WPL 2025: Harmanpreet Kaur Lauds Bowlers As Mumbai Indians Secure First Win
The Mumbai Indians bowlers set the tone early, restricting GG to a below-par total of 120 in 20 overs. Hayley Matthews (3-16) led the attack, with Amelia Kerr (2-22) and Nat Sciver-Brunt (2-26) providing excellent support. "Whatever we talked about in the team meetings, we executed. Really happy everything went according to our plans. The first six overs are very important. Our bowlers did a great job. We picked the right bowlers to bowl (in the first six overs) and that gave us a stable start," said Harmanpreet Kaur after the match.
GG’s batting lineup struggled from the outset, losing opener Beth Mooney for just one in the second over to Sciver-Brunt. Laura Wolvaardt followed soon after, dismissed for four by Shabnim Ismail. With wickets tumbling, Harleen Deol (32 off 31) was the only batter to show resistance. However, her dismissal in the 15th over sealed GG’s fate, and the innings ended with a run-out at 120.
