WPL 2025: Season 1 Finalists Mumbai & Delhi Set For High-voltage Clash (Preview)
The winners of the first-ever WPL in 2023, Mumbai Indians, have relied on a core group of players that includes both overseas and Indian stars. Harmanpreet Kaur's side, which finished second in the points table last year with five wins from eight games, will be looking to go the distance this season.
A major change for MI is the absence of pacer Pooja Vastrakar due to an unspecified injury. She has been replaced by Parunika Sisodia, a slow left-arm orthodox bowler who was instrumental in India’s triumph at the U-19 Women’s T20 World Cup. England’s Issy Wong, who took the first-ever WPL hat-trick in 2023, has been released after struggling with form. Instead, South African pacer Shabnim Ismail is expected to lead the bowling attack.
