And it is time for the WPL 2025 final between MI and DC, in what is a repeat of the 2023 summit clash, where Mumbai had won the first-ever title. Meg Lanning’s DC have made it to their third successive final, but given the current form of Harmanpreet Kaur and Co. it must be said, MI are the clear favorites. Though in the 7 meetings between the two sides, DC have won four, but that hardly means anything on the night of the final at the Brabourne Stadium. Also, one stat worth considering is, DC’s poor record in the WPL final, where their record is 0 out of 3.

DC vs MI Pitch and Ground Report – Brabourne Stadium
Despite being used for the last three matches — that also includes the Eliminator a couple of days back, the Brabourne Stadium pitch seems to be excellent for batting. The red soil on the wicket, of course gives it a nice bounce, that the batters seem to enjoy. Once again, freshness notwithstanding, this wicket has a lot of runs in it.
The par score on the wicket is 170, and anything under that, would be difficult to defend, given the kind of batting both sides possess. Having said that, it would be any easy choice for skippers — win the toss and bat first.
MI vs GG Dream11 Prediction & Fantasy Tips
- All-rounders: Hayley Matthews (MI) (C/VC) – The MI player has been a revelation this year, where she has the most wickets — 17, and has scored 304 runs too. She is the go-to player for Harmanpreet Kaur.
- Nat Sciver-Brunt (MI) (C/VC) – Yet another Mumbai girl has been exceptional with the bat and the ball. She has 9 wickets in as many matches, and is the orange cap holder with 493 runs. She is likely to become only player with 500 runs in a season.
- Harmanpreet Kaur (MI) – After her blistering 36 from 12 deliveries in the Eliminator, she is a must-have in any Dream11 side. She boasted of a strike-rate of massive 300.
- Jess Jonassen (DC) (C/VC) – She has been a surprise package in this year’s WPL, where she not only has picked up wickets, but also scored runs. She has 137 runs at an average of 45, and picked up 11 wickets.
Batters
While there is a whole bunch of MI batters who are firing at the moment, with DC the choice is rather limited. Only Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma have been among the runs, scoring 300, and 263, respectively. So a careful selection needs to be done.
Bowlers
The bowlers might once again go for a lot of runs, and it is just the question of who will give away lesser runs. So, Amelia Kerr with an economy of 7.94 and Shikha Pandey, with an economy of 7.07 could be good choices.
