Mumbai Indians will play their first match of Women’s Premier League 2023 (WPL 2023) vs Gujarat Giants (GG) on March 4. The Mumbai Indians women’s team is quite strong, with names like Harmanpreet Kaur, Natalie Sciver and Hayley Mathews among others. Even Indian homegrown talent has some quality. Not to forget, Mumbai Indians have also bought Yastika Bhatia, who is a solid opening batsman and an India player. MI is a five time champion in IPL. Much of his success in the IPL had to do with his association with experienced T20 players like Rohit Sharma, Kieron Pollard among others. They have tried to apply the same formula for WPL as well.
The first step taken by MI reflects this ideology. MI appointed Charlotte Edwards and Jhulan Goswami as the head coach and mentor of the team. Edwards is the T20 World Cup winning captain. In terms of wickets, Jhulan is the most successful fast bowler ever. With so much experience, the cricketer will remain on track. Now with Harmanpreet Kaur as the skipper, they have a leader who has developed a strong Indian outfit after taking over the leadership role from Mithali Raj.
Speaking about the new coaching team, MI owner Nita Ambani had said, “I am sure that under the brilliant leadership of Charlotte and able support from our bowling coach and mentor Jhulan and our batting coach Devika, our women’s team will Will continue to grow. A prestigious legacy at MI. I look forward to working closely with my coaches and the entire team on this very exciting journey.”
