Mumbai Indians captain Harmanpreet Kaur is optimistic about winning the Women's Premier League title for a second time in the new season. The tournament kicks off on February 14 in Baroda and will span four Indian cities. With a strong squad, Mumbai is poised for a thrilling competition.

Mumbai Indians captain Harmanpreet Kaur has expressed optimism about her team's chances in the upcoming Women's Premier League (WPL) season, setting sights on their second tournament title. The third edition of the women's T20 event is slated to commence on February 14 at the BCA Stadium in Baroda, marking the season opener with matches across Baroda, Bengaluru, Lucknow, and Mumbai.

Mumbai Indians have retained core players including Harmanpreet, Hayley Matthews, Nat Sciver-Brunt, and Amelia Kerr, strengthening their quest for glory.
