NEW DELHI: UP Warriorz skipper Alyssa Healy won the toss and opted to bat against Mumbai Indians in their Women's Premier League (WPL) match at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday.
Warriorz made one change from the last game with Shabnim Ismail replacing an unwell Grace Harris in the playing XI.
Mumbai Indians also made one change bringing in Dhara Gujjar in place of Pooja Vastrakar.
"We are going to have a bat. The teams have put up big totals, if we can do that, we will be able to restrict them. Ismail comes in for Harris. We executed well with bat and ball, we have confidence. I think we are enjoying our cricket and our company," Healy said after winning the toss.
"We are looking for a good game, they did well in the previous game. Pooja is not playing, Dhara comes in. We want to go with the winning combination, we don't want to experiment much. I think 160 will be a decent total. Hopefully we manage to restrict them below that total," MI captain Harmanpreet Kaur said at the toss.
