WPL 2024: Harmanpreet Kaur Stars As MI Beat Gujarat Giants By Seven Wickets - In Pics

Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur hammered a brutal 95 not out (48 balls, 10x4s, 5x6s) as Mumbai Indians came back roaring in their Women's Premier League game to defeat Gujarat Giants by seven wickets on Saturday. Chasing 191 to win, Mumbai Indians finished at 191/3 in 19.5 overs. Mumbai Indians were given a strong start by wicketkeeper-batter Yastika Bhatia, who clobbered eight fours and a six to make 49 from 36 balls. Earlier, Gujarat Giants posted 190 for 7 with skipper Beth Mooney leading the way with a fine 66 off 35 balls with eight fours and three sixes. But it was Dayalan Hemalatha who struck a belligerent 74 off only 40 balls with nine fours and two sixes to emerge as the top scorer. Mooney and Hemalatha put on 121 runs for the second wicket to set the platform for a big total, from only 62 balls.
