WPL 2024 weather update: Delhi weather report for March 12 for MI vs RCB match
The 19th match of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2024 will see Mumbai Indians (MI) square off against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Delhi on Tuesday, March 12.
Mumbai have already qualified for the playoffs, having secured 10 points from five games. Bangalore, on the other hand, are third in the standings, having won three of seven matches. A win in this game will guarantee them a playoff berth in WPL 2024 alongside the Delhi Capitals and Mumbai.
Meanwhile, a loss for Smriti Mandhana and company will leave a ray of hope for UP Warriorz and Gujarat Giants to make it to the next round, depending on the margin of defeat.
Similarly, Mumbai Indians will look to win by a thumping margin to give themselves the best opportunity to finish on top of the points table. They are currently placed second below Delhi due to an inferior net run rate.
Fans are expected to flock to the stadium in huge numbers to witness an epic showdown between two blockbuster teams. And much to the delight of supporters, there is no chance of showers during the WPL 2024 game and they can expect a full 40 overs of action. The skies would be partly cloudy in the beginning but it would get clearer as the game progresses.
The temperature is expected to hover between 23 and 27 degrees Celsius in Delhi. It would be slightly humid and the air quality has been deemed 'very unhealthy,' according to Accuweather.
