The Women’s Premier League has shown that the capacity to turn the crowds towards them and make things interesting is very much intact within women’s cricket. Most of the games have been high-scoring affairs and few have been thrillers. Now, two teams, who haven’t won any game so far in the two they have played, will be up against each other.
Smriti Mandhan-led Royal Challengers Bangalore Women have tested defeat in both their games against Delhi Capitals Women and Mumbai Indians Women. On the other hand, Beth Mooney, who were supposed to lead the Gujarat side, got injured in the first game itself. She could not bat in that game which her team lost by 143 runs.
In the next game, Gujarat were led by Sneh Rana and they almost pulled off a win but for Grace Harris’ magic which literally snatched away the game from Rana and her side.
In this game though, both the teams would be looking to break the losing streak and remain in the hunt for a top-three finish on the table. Losing three in a row would dampen the chances of any side in a tournament which has only eight matches per team.

GG vs RCB-W, Pitch Report
The pitch at Brabouynrnhe Stadium offers a lot of scoring opportunities as the ground is short and the boundaries are pulled up a bit more in women’s games. It has pace and bounce and therefore the ball comes onto the crease easily. Spinners do not get much purchase and due to dew, it becomes even more difficult to get the ball to grip or turn.
