The shorter boundaries during the WPL is a talking point as batters easily dispatch balls to the fence. On both grounds—Brabourne and Navi Mumbai’s DY Patil the boundary distance was inside 60 metres. “Hum logo ne thodi na rope lagaya hai. [We players did not fix the boundary rope]. Jinhone rope lagaya hai aap unko poocho na. [Ask people who decide the distance of the boundary line]. It’s not in our hands,” MI skipper Harmanpreet Kaur remarked.
