Dominant Delhi Capitals Crush UP Warriorz in Women’s Premier League Encounter

In a commanding display of skill and dominance, Delhi Capitals outperformed UP Warriorz with a resounding nine-wicket victory in their Women’s Premier League 2024 clash. The match, held in Bengaluru, witnessed stellar performances from key players such as Shafali Verma, Meg Lanning, and Marizanne Kapp.

The Delhi Capitals’ formidable lineup, featuring prolific batters Shafali Verma and Captain Meg Lanning, showcased their prowess as they effortlessly chased down the 120-run target set by UP Warriorz in just 14.3 overs. The duo’s fluent fifties laid the foundation for Capitals’ victory, backed by veteran pacer Marizanne Kapp’s remarkable opening spell.

At the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Kapp’s exceptional figures of 3 for 5 in four overs restricted the Warriorz to a modest total of 119 for 9. Spinner Radha Yadav played a pivotal role, contributing to the stifling of the Warriorz’ batting lineup.

Warriorz’ innings witnessed aggressive play from Alyssa Healy early on, but the Capitals’ strategic bowling curbed their momentum. Shweta Sehrawat’s valiant knock of 45 provided some resistance, but it was not enough to thwart Delhi’s dominance.

Key members of the UP Warriorz included players like Gouher Sultana, Grace Harris, Sophie Ecclestone, Rajeshwari Gayakwad, and Kiran Navgire, while the Delhi Capitals’ lineup comprised Alice Capsey, Annabel Sutherland, Minnu Mani, and Shikha Pandey among others.
