Of their earlier sport towards Gujarat Giants, Mumbai had been just about in bother when Wong was once out for a first-ball duck, however Harmanpreet ensured they crossed 150. Harmanpreet was once key towards UP too, as Mumbai misplaced Yastika Bhatia, Sciver-Brunt and Kerr affordably. After a gradual get started, she regarded to boost up towards spin, clearing her entrance foot to slog legspinner Parshavi Chopra thru midwicket and dabbing and reducing for limitations in the back of level off Chopra and Rajeshwari Gayakwad.
