WPL 2025 top run-getters and wicket-takers after MI vs GG (Updated) ft. Harmanpreet Kaur and Hayley Matthews

Mumbai Indians survived Bharti Fulmali’s late onslaught to secure a thrilling nine-run win in match number 19 of the Women’s Premier League 2025 (WPL 2025) season at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on March 10. The outcome strengthened Mumbai Indians’ chances of securing a place in the finals before the impending playoffs.

Batting first, Mumbai Indians accrued a staggering 179-6 after losing the toss. Charismatic captain and number-four batter Harmanpreet Kaur top-scored by cracking 54 off those runs from just 33 deliveries with nine elegant boundaries. Hayley Matthews (27 off 22) and in-form number three Nat Sciver-Brunt (38 off 31) also chipped in with important runs at the top of the order.

Amanjot Kaur provided the finishing impetus to the innings with a fiery 15-ball 27, while Yastika Bhatia bludgeoned 13 from just four balls during the slog overs.

For Gujarat Giants, Tanuja Kanwar picked up the wicket of Harmanpreet Kaur in her expensive spell of 1/41. Kashvee Gautam, Priya Mishra and captain Ashleigh Gardner also walked away with a wicket each.

Chasing 180, Gujarat Giants slipped to 92-6 under fiery spells from Shabnim Ismail (2/17), Sanskriti Gupta (1/18) and Amelia Kerr (3/34). With their backs to the wall, lower-order batter Bharti Fulmali blasted eight boundaries and four sweltering maximums in her 25-ball knock of 61 to swing the tide back in the Giants’ favor.

However, a timely breakthrough from Kerr, coupled with a three-wicket demolition job from Hayley Matthews (3/38) kept the Gujarat Giants down to just 170 as Mumbai Indians won the penultimate league game of the season.
