Jharkhand Women will lock horns against Maharashtra Women in the Women's Senior Trophy 2021 on Monday at the Maharana Pratap College Ground in Dehradun.
Jharkhand didn't have the best of starts to the competition, suffering a loss against Delhi in their tournament opener. Batting first, Delhi posted 192 on the board. In response, Jharkhand fell short by 24 runs.
There were contributions from their middle-order batters, but they needed a team effort, which was missing. The runners-up of the previous edition of the tournament will now look to bounce back on Monday.
Meanwhile, Maharashtra got off to a winning start to their campaign. They beat Tripura comprehensively in their tournament opener. They will be riding high with confidence, and look to continue their winning momentum.
Batting first, Tripura managed only a modest 139. In what proved to be a cakewalk, Maharashtra chased down the target in only the 24th over, losing just two wickets.
