The Gujarat Giants achieved a significant milestone by defeating the Mumbai Indians by 11 runs in the Women's Premier League (WPL) on January 31, 2026. This victory was particularly momentous as it ended an eight-match losing streak against the Mumbai team.

Playing at the Kotambi Stadium, the Giants were vociferously supported by their home crowd. Ashleigh Gardner's team's performance was lauded by coach Michael Klinger as one of their best, especially on a slightly slower pitch where posting close to 170 runs was considered above par.

The decision to bat first, made by captain Ashleigh Gardner, was strategic, considering the pitch had been used for three previous matches. Coach Klinger supported this, believing a solid total could be defended with strong bowling and fielding.
