WPL 2023: Rescheduled season opening between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Giants

On March 4, 2023, Mumbai Indians will face Gujarat Giants in the first match of the inaugural Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 season. The season opener has been rescheduled, so fans will have to wait a little longer until the competition begins.

The contest will now begin 30 minutes later than scheduled. MI-W and GUJ-W were originally slated to play each other at 7:30 p.m. IST. The match will now begin at 8:00 p.m. IST, according to an official tournament announcement.

“Saturday at 8:00 p.m. IST will be the new time for the beginning of the inaugural game. The coin flip will occur at 7.30 PM IST. Fans will be able to watch the grand opening event, which will begin at 6:25 p.m. IST, once the gates open at 4 p.m “the announcement stated.
“Bollywood actresses Kiara Advani and Kriti Sanon will add sparkle and glamour to the tournament start. On top of that, singer-songwriter AP Dhillon will perform some of his musical chart-toppers that are sure to captivate the crowd “it added.
The cause for the delay is unknown, but it does not dampen the spectators’ enthusiasm for the season premiere.

Harmanpreet Kaur will attempt to win her opening match against Gujarat Giants.
Both the Mumbai Indians and the Gujarat Giants have top batting lineups. Harmanpreet Kaur is the captain of the Indian squad for MI-W. In addition to Amelia Kerr, Yastika Bhatia, and Nat Sciver-Brunst, their tournament hopes are bolstered by the presence of these players.
Beth Mooney will lead the Gujarat Giants, in contrast. When their team enters the tournament, Ashleigh Gardner, Sophie Dunkley, and Harleen Deol will attempt to deliver much-needed impact.
