Delhi Capitals women
- The average score batting first at this location and on this surface was 163, and the Delhi Capitals scored precisely as many runs.
- Meg Lanning’s 55 was the foundation, and DC constructed their innings around her.
- Alice Capsey and Annabel Sutherland made significant contributions, pushing them above 150, with Shikha Pandey’s 8-ball 14* frosting on the cake.
- The Giants performed poorly on the field, missing many important opportunities.
- They’ve never gone over 142 in this event, but they’re pursuing for the first time, and they’ll be certain they can reach 164.
Gujarat Giants
- Gujarat has suffered four defeats in a row and is practically out of the playoff race.
- Meanwhile, with their third consecutive win, Delhi moves to the top of the standings.
- Once again, Gujarat’s batting failed them. Mooney, Wolvaardt, and Litchfield all delivered disappointing performances.

- And as she collapsed, everything was finished save the yelling.
- The game then dragged to its apparent ending.
- Jonassen and Radha Yadav’s SLA spins received three apiece, with Shikha and Arundhati contributing as well.
