WPL 2026: Mumbai Indians Elect To Bowl As Ayushi Soni Debuts For Gujarat Giants
Dr DY Patil Sports Academy: Mumbai Indians won the toss and elected to bowl first against Gujarat Giants in the sixth match of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026, at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai on Tuesday.
For the Mumbai Indians, a fit-again Hayley Matthews is back in the playing eleven as Nat Sciver Brunt is unwell. Giants have handed a debut to Ayushi Soni as Anushka Sharma is out with an injury.
Mumbai Indians captain Harmanpreet Kaur said, "We are going to bowl first. I believe, in T20 cricket, especially when you are playing night games, it’s better to chase. We are ticking all the areas we discussed in the team meetings. The bowlers are executing their plans. We are looking to bat positively in the first six overs. Hayley is fit, and she is back. Unfortunately, Nat is unwell today. Hayley does well with bat and ball, and hopefully, she can take the responsibility for the team."
