Delhi Capitals Women team and UP Warriorz will face off in Match No. 5 of the ongoing Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Tuesday (March 7). Both sides opened their campaign in the WPL with contrasting wins on Sunday and will be eyeing their second successive win, much like Mumbai Indian Women team – who have been unbeaten in the tournament so far.
The Delhi Capitals got off to a dream start in the WPL 2023 as they registered a 60-run victory over Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai on Sunday. Captain Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma produced a fantastic opening stand of 162 runs to help their team post a total of 223/2. And fast bowler Tara Norris put her hand up in the bowling department as DC restricted RCB to 163/8 in their 20 overs.
Speaking about their victory, the DC skipper Lanning said, “It was a great start for us. It was good fun to bat with Shafali. She set the tone for the team. Everyone was excellent on the field as well. I also thought Tara was excellent. She bowled on the stumps and was very effective.”
Norris, who returned with figures of 5/29, said, “Meg and Shafali batted really well. It definitely helped to have runs on the board. I tried to bowl on the stumps as much as I could. I was pretty nervous as we were playing on a high-scoring pitch. I just tried to keep it as simple as possible.”
An outstanding first win in #TATAWPL, followed by an inspirational speech by Jonathan Batty _
