MI vs DC, WPL 2023: Toss result and playing 11s for today's match, umpires list and pitch report

Mumbai Indians (MI) will meet Delhi Capitals (DC) in match number 18 of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 at the DY Patil Sports Academy in Mumbai in the second game of the double-header on Monday, March 20.

With both MI and DC having qualified for the playoffs, the clash will be a chance for the teams to do some fine-tuning. Mumbai will go into the game having suffered their first loss of the tournament.

After five consecutive wins, they went down to UP Warriorz (UPW) by five wickets. While the performance was a rather lackluster one, Mumbai should consider it a blessing in disguise as the defeat would have shaken off complacency, if any had set into the MI camp.

DC also head into the game on the back of an 11-run loss at the hands of Gujarat Giants (GG). Their bowlers did well to restrict Gujarat to 147/4. However, Delhi’s famed batting line-up had an off-day. They were all-out for 136 in the chase, Marizanne Kapp being the only batter to cross the 30-run mark.
