This year's Women's Premier League is already proving to be a very tightly contested one. Ahead of Friday's game, all the teams had been beaten at least once and there were three sides jostling for position at the top of the table on four points. For the organisers, this is the dream scenario as all permutations are possible at this stage!
Both RCB Women and Mumbai Indians Women will consider themselves as genuine contenders for the tournament this season and they will both be desperate to bounce back with immediate effect in this fixture.
Who will win though? That is the question with two valuable points up for grabs.

Ellyse Perry missed RCB Women's defeat against Delhi Capitals Women due to illness and early reports are that she will not have recovered in time for this match. Although her runs will be missed, Nadine de Klerk proved a more than able deputy with the ball and she will be looking to dismiss the top batters for Mumbai Indians Women in this game after getting rid of Alice Capsey and Jemimah Rodrigues in the last game.
With the bat, Smriti Mandhana found her form in the last match and along with Richa Ghosh, Sabbhineni Meghana and Sophie Devine, makes up a very talented batting line-up!
Sabbineni Meghana has been a key contributor to RCB's batting success this season, scoring 36, 36, and 53 runs in her three matches. Her consistent performances have been crucial in securing two victories for RCB. We expect her to continue her form and score over 22.5 runs against a formidable Mumbai Indians bowling attack.

All eyes will be on the toss for Mumbai Indians Women ahead of this match with the big question being whether or not Harmanpreet Kaur will be fit enough to play. The skipper missed out in the last game, as did Shabnim Ismail, although both were not considered to be suffering from long-term knocks.
If Kaur is unable to play then we can expect Nat Sciver-Brunt to captain the side once more. Although she led the team to defeat against UP Warriorz Women, with Hayley Matthews in fine form and Amelia Kerr taking wickets at a regular rate, Sciver-Brunt should be able to let her senior players just get on with it in this clash.
Mumbai Indians Women, despite winning two of their first three matches, have struggled to score runs in the powerplay overs. They scored 50 runs in the powerplay against Delhi Capitals Women in the first game of the season. However, in the last two matches, they struggled to get going, scoring only 39 and 36 runs in the powerplay. Meanwhile, RCB Women have been excellent in restricting their opponents early in the innings throughout the tournament. We predict the score of Mumbai Indians Women at the end of the first six overs to be under 43.5 runs.

The forecast is for a very warm evening in Bengaluru on Saturday evening with some initial cloud cover giving way to some clear skies. There will be some humidity but not a huge difference from innings to innings.

Average TurnWe have seen some excellent batting at this venue over recent days and the bowlers are starting to have to work that little bit harder for their dismissals. Whoever bats first, they'll be targeting a score approaching 190!
Only two sides have won from batting first in this tournament so far and each skipper has chosen to bowl first. We predict that both teams will be wanting to bowl first once more in this game.
Make no mistake about it, these two teams are two of the best in this tournament and we could well see this fixture again as the final of the 2024 WPL. If Harmanpreet Kaur and Shabnim Ismail can play then Mumbai Indians Women will be strong favourites, but even with the pair out, we are backing them to get the victory.
