Bastilla as a Sith became very powerful. She would use "Force Wave" to throw Maul many yards away and then she will use her "Light Saber Throw" ability to end Maul's threat.
Bastilla as a Jedi was also powerful. But she can be defeated by Maul in a pure Saber Combat.

Is there any proof that Maul would even be able to defend against her lightning? Given that he wasn't able to block Mighella's, only able to resist it, whereas Bastilla is clearly far more powerful in the force than Mighella is, I'd say Bastilla just kills him with her lightning.

Oh yeah she uses force lightning while Maul is busy chopping her head off...Why did you remake this isn't it already established Maul would skull *uck her.
She was stated to be a saber prodigy by Vandar, she was one of the top dogs in one of the most martial eras ever, she constantly faced combat against other force users, she was able somewhat contend with Malak and Revan...
Bastilla was never considered to be a Saber Prodigy.
Master Vandar only termed Revan as a Saber Prodigy and none other.
And the only known master swordsmen of KOTOR era are:
- Revan
- Exar Kun
- Malak
- Yusanis
- Sion
Bastilla is indeed good with Saber and is among the list of those few Jedi/Sith that preferably use Double Bladed Light Saber in Combat. But still I believe that Maul is better.
He alone handled Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan very well and was capable enough to defeat them both in a straight Saber Fight.
Bastilla only has chance through her knowledge of Force in this case.

Maul is better than Mighella in terms of lightsaber combat definately. As for the Force, Bastila is better. Overall though, due to Maul's agility, resistance (he resisted Mighella's Force Lightning), strength, and skill he'll take the victory.

Where has Bastilla's "extreme skill" with a lightsaber been identified? I am hesitant to say that she'd take someone on Maul's level. Maul was referred to, by the TPM visual guide, as "one of the deadliest Sith apprentices in history". He's far more versed in combat than she is. He's faster, stronger, more agile, and imbued with skills in martial arts. I don't see her beating him in physical combat - even if it is with a lightsaber.
He was able to take on Anoon Bondara - a legendary lightsaber duelist, with moderate difficulty only. He manhandled Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan at the same time. He did well against Sidious in a mock battle, even.
If anything, Maul is extremely durable and possesses intense stamina and a pain threshold. Bastilla's only option is for Force powers, and I don't see her disabling or killing him with lightning.
If it goes to sabers, I see her dying without too much difficulty.
Mighella broke through his lightsaber defence with lightning. Bastilla, who is far stronger in the force will do the same, except her lightning will actually be too strong for Maul to resist.
Hard fight. I think bastilla has more force power (and said to be strong with the force) but about lightsaber skill is hard to know... Ok, i say a tie.
Maul is overrated in lightsaber combat, he's pretty whack in TPM, sure he can do some nice acrobatics, but he leaves himself open and is too reckless. Bastilla has far more experience than he does against lightsaber users, she was stated to be a saber prodigy by the masters at Dantooine, she's much stronger in the force which is a huge factor in lightsaber fights, she was one of the best in one of the most martial periods ever, I'd say it can be deduced that she's above Maul in lightsaber combat, but that's irrelevant really, as she pwns him with the force. Bastilla easily has this.
