WPL Live: Mumbai Indians in focus as Smriti Mandhana departs

After two quick wickets taken by spinner Saika Ishaque, the next over witnessed the great wicket of RCB skipper Smriti Mandhana.

Matthews to Mandhana – Wong has caught it. RCB is in big trouble. They have thrown away a good start, going from 39/0 to 43/3 in six balls. Harman and Mumbai are overjoyed. The strategy worked, and Smriti was bowled by the off-spinner once more. She shimmies down and attempts to go inside out, but Matthews slows it down and causes it to spin away, causing Smriti to slice it towards the backward point and Wong to take the dolly.
