Mumbai Indians’ captain Harmanpreet Kaur says this after insane power-hitting rocks Gujarat Giants

Mumbai: In a display of sheer dominance, Mumbai Indians’ captain, Harmanpreet Kaur, showcased her batting prowess with an unbeaten knock of 95 runs, guiding her team to a magnificent seven-wicket victory over the Gujarat Giants in a Women’s Premier League (WPL) encounter. Harmanpreet’s blistering innings, in just 48 deliveries, included a staggering 10 fours and five towering sixes.

Alongside opener Yastika Bhatia, who contributed a vital 49 runs off 36 balls, Harmanpreet played a pivotal role in successfully chasing down Gujarat’s imposing total of 190/7.

In fact, such was the extent of Harmanpreet’s power-hitting in the clash against Giants that even the match referee had to inspect her bat, or so the MI captain seemingly revealed in the post-match interaction!

Harmanpreet revealed that he had batted with her practice bat due to better grip on it, but match referee checked her bat after a destructive knock against the Giants.

“When we were practicing, I was using this bat (the one she played with), my match bat was different. But my grip was a bit loose with the latter. Then, I thought I should use my practice bat only,” Harmanpreet said.

When a fellow anchor hilariously says that she will take Harmanpreet’s bat for herself, the MI captain reveals the match referee actually had a look at her bat.

“Arey vo referee mere peeche pade hain, bat check kar rahe hain, jaise pata nahi kya daala hai bat me! (The match referee is checking my bat, as if I’ve put something in it!” Harmanpreet said as she laughed.
