The RCB will play the UP Warriorz, who have won two of their first four games. The Warriorz have a powerful bowling assault and will need on batsmen like Alyssa Healy and Tahlia McGrath to hold the fort.
While the Warriorz defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore by 10 wickets in the reverse encounter, a far more competitive contest awaits the two teams in Mumbai.
