New Delhi, March 7

Mumbai Indians beat UP Warriorz by 42 runs in their Women’s Premier League match here today.

Batting first, Mumbai Indians rode on Nat Sciver-Brunt’s 45 and Amelia Kerr’s 39 to post 160/6 after being 17/2 in the fourth over.

In reply, UP Warriorz were stopped at 118/9 by a disciplined MI bowling unit to help the side register a clinical win. Deepti Sharma waged a lone battle with a 36-ball 53. Saika Ishaque picked up three wickets, while Sciver-Brunt finished with two wickets.

“We did not feel the total was less. The pitch slows down in the second innings, and we felt it was a good total to fight,” Ishaque said.

Brief scores: Mumbai Indians: 160/6 in 20 overs (Sciver-Brunt 45, Kerr 39, Harmanpreet 33; Athapaththu 2/27); UP Warriorz: 118/9 in 20 overs (Sharma 53; Ishaque 3/27, Sciver-Brunt 2/14).

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
