Navi Mumbai, Mar 18 (IANS): UP Warriorz won the toss and elected to field first against Mumbai Indians in Match 15 of the Women's Premier League (WPL) at the DY Patil Stadium here on Saturday.

While Warriorz have made one change in their playing XI with leg-spinner Parshavi Chopra coming in for Shweta Sehrawat, MI opted to take the field with no change in the line-up.

After winning the toss, Warriorz skipper Alyssa Healy said: "We have chased a lot better than what we have set this year, so that's one of the reasons for bowling first."
