Royal Challengers Bangalore Women enters this fixture on the back of a loss against Delhi Capitals Women. The latter batted first and managed to muster a total of 194 runs which left RCB Women with an uphill battle.

Their skipper and opener, Smriti Mandhana, was the only one who made a significant mark with a contribution of 74 runs. Ultimately, they yielded by 25 runs.
In an unexpected turn of events, Mumbai Indians Women were not successful in their outing against UP Warriorz Women. Opting to field first, UPW Women put MI Women at the crease and limited the latter to 161 runs.

Royal Challengers Bangalore Women vs Mumbai Indians Women Betting Tips
Royal Challengers Bangalore Women to score under 23.5 runs before their first dismissal @ 1.85 (Parimatch)
Barring their first match of the season where RCB Women’s openers collaborated for 13 runs before their first dismissal, their opening partnerships have improved significantly since then. In their next two matches, they scored 32 runs and 77 runs together before their first dismissal. However, the previous two scores could be attributed to the fact that they were the chasing side, which gives them greater assistance at this venue. MI Women’s bowling unit with the likes of Amelia Kerr, Nat Sciver-Brunt and Issy Wong could put pressure on RCB Women’s opening duo.

Royal Challengers Bangalore Women to have a better opening partnership than Mumbai Indians Women @ 1.81 (Parimatch)
MI Women’s opening pair, Hayley Matthews and Yastika Bhatia, took a while to get their bearings but finally attained a decent opening stand of 50 runs in their previous match against UP Warriorz Women. Prior to that, they scored 19 runs together against Gujarat Giants Women and were fruitless against Delhi Capitals Women. RCB Women’s openers, too, were on a similar path as they scored 13 runs and 32 runs in their first two matches of the season. However, their last encounter against DC Women saw Smriti Mandhana and Sophie Devine combine forces to add 77 runs to the first wicket. RCB Women can be relied upon to have a better opening partnership than MI Women.
