MI Vs GG Live Cricket Score, WPL 2026: Matthews, Kamalini Fall Early In 193-Run Chase | Mumbai Indians 37/2 (4.5)

G Kamalini partners Hayley Matthews at the top of the order for Mumbai Indians, who commence their chase of a total bigger than any they have chased down in WPL history. MI's highest successful chase is 191, but these stats are meant to be challenged in the ever-evolving modern game. Renuka Singh bowls a tidy first over, while Kashvee Gautam shares the new ball with her.

The move to retire out Ayushi Soni pays off, and how! The hard-hitting Bharti Fulmali smacks a last-ball six to end not out on 36 off just 15, and along with Georgia Wareham (43 not out off 33), has propelled the Giants to a strong 192-run total. Let's see if Mumbai can chase this down.

Georgia Wareham (27 not out) and debutant Ayushi Soni (11) have steadied the GG ship, making sure they do not lose another wicket. But with Soni unable to score at even run-a-ball, Gujarat take the tough call of retiring her out. Bharti Fulmali walks out to bat, with the run rate at around eight and a half.

Mumbai Indians have pulled things back admirably after the powerplay. Amelia Kerr catches Mooney (33) off her own bowling in her first over, before Nicola Carey traps Giants skipper Ashleigh Gardner (20) in front. Hayley Matthews then sends back the well-set Kanika Ahuja (35) to leave GG four down.

GG: 101/4 (11)

G Kamalini makes amends for her drop, by pulling off a very good catch to help Ismail get rid of Sophie Devine. But in comes Kanika Ahuja, and gets going right away, stroking an unbeaten nine-ball 20. Mooney is also not out on 32 off 24, as Gujarat blast 62 runs in the powerplay.

Veteran South Africa seamer Shabnim Ismail starts off brilliantly, bowling in the channel and even drawing Beth Mooney's outside edge off the fifth delivery. But young wicketkeeper G Kamalini drops the straightforward chance. Ismail is not impressed, and skipper Harmanpreet doesn't know how to react. Still a superb over, with just one run off it.
