In a reverse fixture of the Thursday clash, Mumbai Indians Women (MI W) will once again be up against the UP Warriorz (UP W) in the Match No. 10 of the ongoing Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026 on Saturday, January 17 at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy, Navi Mumbai

Mumbai Indians Women have played four games thus far, winning a couple of them and losing as many. In the previous match, they failed to defend the target against the Uttar Pradesh-based side, as Harleen Deol played a thunderous knock. As they bid adieu to Navi Mumbai, Harmanpreet Kaur & Co. will look to walk away with their third win of the season.

UP Warriorz, on the other hand, started the 2026 edition on a disappointing note, with a hat-trick of losses in their first three games. However, they finally gained their first points of the season after an emphatic victory against the defending champions. The Meg Lanning-led team will now be aiming to continue their momentum and build a streak to return to fine form.

Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy, Navi Mumbai: Pitch Report

The majority of the games played at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai have been won by the teams batting second. The results have mostly fallen in favour of the chasing sides since the pitch has tended to get better to bat as the match progresses. However, teams will have to keep in mind that the upcoming match will be played in the afternoon, and the dew is not supposed to play a part in it. A total above 200 can be considered a winning total, though.

MI W vs UP W: Probable Best Performers

Probable Best Batter: Harleen Deol

Over the past two innings, it has been a comeback of sorts for star batter Harleen Deol. She made 47 against the Delhi Capitals and followed it up with a brilliant unbeaten half-century in the following match against MI. With form being on her side, and conditions being extremely favourable for batting, the Chandigarh-born is expected to have a decent outing with the bat.

Probable Best Bowler: Shabnim Ismail

All the experience of Shabnim Ismail seems to be paying off for the Mumbai-based franchise in the ongoing WPL season. The right-arm pacer has picked up only three wickets in four games thus far, but what's been the most impressive factor is her economy rate, which has remained 5.81 — an exceptional feat in 20-over cricket. While she is done stemming the flow of runs, the upcoming game serves the South African speedster an opportunity to be the standout bowler.
