The 16th WPL 2026 match between the Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women and Mumbai Indians Women will take place at Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara on Monday. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women have been the most dominant team this season, winning five of their six games and putting them at the top of the table. If they triumph in this match, it will ensure a direct path to the final, and they seem capable of doing it right now. They lost their last match by seven wickets against Delhi Capitals Women 

Despite having two victories from three matches, Mumbai Indians Women's start looked promising, but a three-game losing streak has led them to fall to third. With two league fixtures remaining, they have a chance to make the playoffs, but if they slip further, the teams behind them will be able to make up the gap.
