GG vs RCB weather update: Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai weather report for WPL 2023 Match 6
An uninterrupted game awaits when Gujarat Giants (GG) will lock horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Wednesday, March 8. Both teams are winless in the ongoing Women's Premier League (WPL) 2023 and will hope to get their campaign back on track.
GG have looked like the most unsettled squad in the competition so far. The injury to their skipper Beth Mooney has doubled their misery. The Giants lost by a mammoth 143 runs in their first game against Mumbai Indians (MI) before going down in a thriller against UP Warriroz.
While there is very little time to introspect in a fast-moving league like WPL 2023, Gujarat will take their spirited display in their second game as a form of optimism going forward.
Royal Challengers Bangalore have also found it difficult so far against two of the best sides in the competition. The likes of Sophie Devine, Ellyse Perry, Heather Knight, and Megan Scutt, along with skipper Smriti Mandhana, are yet to make a mark, which has hurt the team badly.
After the last game, Mandhana stressed that a win would change things for her side and RCB will search for that much-needed victory.
