Delhi capitals 165 for 8 (Shafali 43, Prasad 35, Kerr 2-22, Matthews 2-31) Beat Mumbai Indians 164 (SCIVER-BRUNT 80*, Harmanpreet 42, Sutherland 3-34, Pandey 2-14) by two WICKETS
Just 24 hours after 202 was easily persecuted at the Opening Night of WPL 2025, a 165 target proved to be complicated in the same launch for Delhi Capitals, who exceeded the line in the last ball against the Mumbai Indians for a wickt of two wickt win. He went down to 30, 18, 10, six, two outside the last ball and, finally, a matter of centimeters when Arundhati Reddy put an immersion to make his land that turned out to be the winning races.
The three contentious exhaustion that does not
The second arrived in the next when DC needed 16 of the eight. Radha Yadav was not given when he ended up bouncing in his bat of the ground while diving; The bat was in the air when the wickt lit up, but the referee, again, was heard when the stumps were visibly broken. Radha then broke the following ball for a six and reduced equation to 10 of the last.
The last instance was in the last ball of the game, when DC needed two of two. Reddy put an immersion while trying to complete the second race and the stumps illuminated when the bat seemed to be in the fold line, but the third referee did not come out again and caused celebrations for DC.
Shafali balance the power game in favor of DC
Shafali came out all the weapons burning even when Shabnim Ismail made Meg Lanning be clueless against his outswingers and hit her six times in 12 balls before finally knocking her down. Shafali, at the other extreme, became Saika Ishaque with a belligerent blow for 22 races. She followed a great six on the sheets with four four consecutive four, three of which ran to the limit outside the side and a back back on Ishaque’s head. Shafali then took Hayley Matthews for 15 races in the last power game with two four and six, although she went badly one of them to half of half of half of the middle.
Two WPL debutants have their nerve for DC
Two balls later, Lanning fell when Ismail obtained a consecutive room and soon became four WICKETS in four overs when Jemimah Rodrigues was fired by Amelia Kerr and Annabel Sutherland lost a Sciver-Brunt shooter. When DC thought that the association between Alice Capsey and Prasad of 33 was returning them to the track, Capsey found Ismail in Long-on and DC in trouble, still needed 56 of 31 with five wickts down.
Pandey Swing and Sciver-Brunt class
Pandey made a stellar start in his WPL campaign with a delicious disharge in the right and left batters. She hit her first spell twice; First in the first time when Matthews made to slide for a duck and four overs later, he knocked down Yastika Bhatia’s leg in a frugal spell of 3-0-8-2.
However, the other bowling players were not so saved. Capsey leaked 19 races in a new one, with Sciver-Brunt showing its dismissal by placing the ball perfectly in the holes for the limits. On a Late of Capsey, he took Reddy on his leg and unleashed powerful shots to help me 41 by 2 in the power game.
Harmanpreet throws the hammer
Harmanpreet often begins slowly and then suddenly turns on his change in T20, and on Saturday this happened in the eighth. Once Radha carved on the coverage point for four of a ball without balls, Harmanpreet threw the free blow for a six for a long time to be 18 races. Then, she chose Reddy for a six for a long time in 15 races, but the assault did not last too long.
After fours consecutive outside Sutherland on the side off the side, Harmanpreet smoked a six on the medium rope to reach 8000 T20 races and followed her with four others on the point. But when he went for another cut outside, he gave a capture to Prasad; No one else would hit a six in the rest of my entries.
Trich the lonely woman standing
Sciver-Brunt had also reached eight four four to take me beyond 100 with the 20 Sutherland races. Sciver-Brunt reached fifty-36 balls to keep me at a distance touched from 10 and with seven overs to go and seven wickts in his hand.
Mi, however, slipped and did not even last 20 overs; They lost wickts in almost each from there. Kerr sold out at the end of the non -front when Minnu Mann deflected a ball from his own bowling alley, Sajana surpassed the goalkeeper, Amanjot Kaur York accumulated against Capsey to lose the stumps, and there were two running more. Outs when the Tailenders tried to give the attack to go to death for death. When Strike got, he used his power to send the oldest ball and ended with his highest WPL score.
