UP Warriroz
- Kiran Navgire went quickly in the second over, but UP scored 44 runs from the powerplay after deciding to bat.
- Deepti Sharma moved to three and struggled to get started.
- With the scoring rate decreasing, Healy attempted to go for Capsey and got out.
- Arundhati Reddy dismissed McGrath with an exquisite shot in the following over, and the Warriorz were 63/3 at the midway point.
- Deepti established some flow in her innings, but she had little help from the remaining batters. A spirited fifty from Deepti has given UP something to defend.
Delhi Capitals Women
- Delhi was making great progress in its quest of 139. Lanning took the lead with a 46-ball 60, while Shafali, Capsey, and Jemimah also contributed.
- The aim was comfortably within range when they required 28 off 24, but the tide turned with an Ecclestone over for a single.
- Jemmimah grounded out immediately after that, but it appeared like affairs were again on track when Jonassen hit a six and a boundary to reduce the deficit to 15 required off 12.
- Then, in the final two overs, chaos ensued.
- Deepti Sharma took three wickets in the 19th over, putting the burden back on Delhi.
- It appeared that Delhi had almost made it in when a missed catch hit for six off the first delivery of the 20th over.
- But the Delhi batters couldn’t hold their cool and threw away three wickets to offer the Warriorz a victory.
