England Captain Heather Knight is hoping the experience gained from winning the Women's World Cup in 2017 can help her team defeat favourites Australia for this year's title in Christchurch on Sunday.
Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) pacer Umesh Yadav, who scalped four wickets in his team's win over Punjab Kings (PBKS), said that he needs to "work hard" as he is "getting older". Andre Russell's unbeaten knock of 70 from 31 balls helped KKR score 141 for 4 in 14.3 overs in reply to Punjab's 137 to register a six-wicket victory and make a mockery of the chase here at Wankhede Stadium on Friday. PBKS were bowled out for a modest 137 in 18.2 overs as Umesh Yadav bagged four wickets for 23 runs to earn the 'Player of the Match' award.
Rishabh Pant - will lead Gujarat Titans and Delhi Capitals respectively, hoping to get the better of each other at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Saturday. While left-arm spinner Axar Patel and all-rounder Lalit Verma rescued the Capitals from a precarious position to chase 179 with 10 balls remaining in their opening game, the Titans were grateful to the lower-order hitting from David Miller, Rahul Tewatia and Abhinav Manohar to scrape past Supergiants in their debut clash.

Suryakumar Yadav's return a boost for Rohit-led MumbaiNAVI MUMBAI: Bolstered by the return of their flamboyant India batsman Suyakumar Yadav, the Mumbai Indians will look for their first win when they take on a new-look Rajasthan Royals at DY Patil stadium on Saturday afternoon. "Suryakumar is a retained player and has been a key member of this side and we are all eagerly waiting for him to take the field," said Zaheer Khan, Director of Cricket Operations at MI. "In terms of his availability for the next game, yes he is (available)," said the former India pacer.
Andre Russell's unbeaten knock of 70 from 31 balls helped Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) score 141/4 in 14.3 overs in reply to Punjab Kings 137 to register a six-wicket victory and make a mockery of the chase here at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday. "It was such a relief to see him hit so clearly. Simply outstanding hitting - it was Russell muscle for serious," said Kolkata Knight Riders' captain Shreyas Iyer at the post-match press Conference. KKR were at one stage reeling at 51/4 in their run-chase, but Russell's blistering half-century, which included 8 sixes, turned the game on its head as Kolkata won with more than five overs to spare.
Andre Russell felt "awesome" while hitting those eight monster sixes against Punjab Kings as he always knew what he needed to do when he walked in with Kolkata Knight Riders' score reading 51 for four. Russell scored an unbeaten 70 off 31 balls and what looked like a tricky chase at one point ended in an anti-climax as the big Jamaican muscled sixes into the stands. "Feeling awesome, this is the reason why we play the game. In that position, I know what I can do," Russell said after the match.
