Points Table

At the halfway stage of the Women's Premier League 2023, Mumbai Indians have emerged as the strongest team in the competition. They have won all of their four matches and quite comprehensively at that. Their net run rate of +3.524 is a testament of their dominance in the competition.

Delhi Capitals follow them closely with 3 victories from 4 matches, their only defeat coming against Mumbai themselves. UP Warriors too have impressed with a couple of fine performances and sit with 4 points after as many matches.

Gujarat Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore are lagging behind. While Smriti Mandhana's RCB are yet to open their account, Gujarat have managed to win just one out of their four matches and are sorely missing captain Beth Mooney who has been ruled out of the competition due to an injury.

Meg Lanning, Alyssa Healy and Shafali Verma feature at the top three spots in run-scoring charts.

Mumbai Indians' Saika Ishaque has impressed one and all with 12 wickets from 4 games. Sophie Ecclestone, Hayley Matthews, Tara Norris and Amelia Kerr have also done well with the ball.
