WPL 2025 Points Table: Updated Standings After MI Women vs UP Warriorz Match

Hayley Matthews smashed a 46-ball 68, while Amelia Kerr recorded her best bowling figures of 5/38 as Mumbai Indians powered to a six-wicket win over UP Warriorz in the Women’s Premier League on Thursday. The former champions chased down 151 in just 18.3 overs, boosting their net run rate and climbing to second in the table with eight points, two behind leaders Delhi Capitals with a game in hand.

This was UP Warriorz’s third straight loss, putting them on the verge of elimination. Chasing a modest 151 on a dew-heavy Ekana Stadium, MI lost Amelia Kerr (10) early, but Matthews took control, smashing a 35-ball fifty in a match-winning 92-run stand with Nat Sciver-Brunt, with the partnership coming in just 58 balls. She played smoothly off the back foot, especially through the off-side, and reached her second half-century of the season against UPW with a sharp boundary between point and cover-point.

She took apart Chinelle Henry with a towering six over deep midwicket before sweeping Sophie Ecclestone for consecutive boundaries as MI raced to 50/1 in the powerplay. Although UPW skipper Deepti Sharma pulled off a brilliant catch to break the partnership, dismissing Sciver-Brunt (37 off 23 balls), MI needed just 35 runs from 43 balls by then.

In the next over, Matthews attacked seamer Kranti Goud, smashing a boundary through deep cover before launching a six over deep backward square leg. However, her explosive 46-ball 68, studded with eight fours and two sixes, ended in the same over. But Yastika Bhatia (10 off six balls) finished the job, striking Deepti Sharma for two boundaries in the penultimate over to seal the chase with nine balls to spare.

Earlier, after choosing to bowl, MI turned the game around with New Zealand leg-spinner Kerr becoming only the sixth player in WPL history to claim a five-wicket haul. At 74/0 in 7.5 overs, UPW seemed on track for a 200-plus total, with Voll (50 off 29) blazing her maiden WPL fifty. Playing just her second game, Voll attacked Kerr with four consecutive boundaries, using her footwork aggressively after being promoted to her preferred opening slot. However, MI fought back, taking three wickets in just 14 balls.

Matthews dismissed Grace Harris (28) right after being hit for a six, while Kerr sent back Kiran Navgire (0). Voll, who shuffled across for a scoop, was bowled by Sciver-Brunt’s clever slower delivery in the 15th over. Kerr delivered the final blow in the last over, taking two wickets, including the in-form Chinelle Henry (6), who had launched a massive six before falling into MI’s trap. UPW collapsed from 74/0 to 150/9, losing nine wickets for just 76 runs in the last 12.1 overs.
