Delhi Capitals came close to their maiden Women’s Premier League (WPL) title for the third consecutive season but faltered at the final hurdle. In a gripping final that mirrored 2023, Mumbai Indians won their second championship with a resilient performance, securing an eight-run victory. This win reinforced Mumbai’s dominance, marking their second WPL title and 11th across global franchise cricket, further cementing their reputation as a powerhouse. Despite their consistent performances, Delhi once again fell short in a final, prolonging their wait for silverware.

Harmanpreet Kaur anchors Mumbai Indians to 149/7

Winning the toss, Delhi opted to bowl first, immediately putting Mumbai under pressure by reducing them to 14/2. However, skipper Harmanpreet Kaur (66 off 44) and Nat Sciver-Brunt (30 off 28) led a remarkable recovery, stitching together an 87-run partnership. Their composed approach helped Mumbai rebuild, despite Delhi’s disciplined bowling attack. Just as Mumbai aimed for a strong finish, Jess Jonassen and Shikha Pandey struck crucial blows in the death overs. The late wickets prevented Mumbai from accelerating fully, but they still managed to post a competitive 149/7 in 20 overs.

Delhi Capitals chase falters despite Marizanne Kapp’s heroics

Delhi’s chase began on a shaky note as they lost both openers early, slipping to 22/2 within three overs. Jemimah Rodrigues (30 off 21) and Marizanne Kapp (40 off 26) attempted a fightback, adding valuable runs under pressure. Their efforts kept Delhi in contention, but their dismissals at crucial moments shifted the momentum back to Mumbai. Niki Prasad (25 off 23) tried to steer the chase in the final overs, but Mumbai’s disciplined bowling restricted boundaries. With wickets falling regularly and the required run rate climbing, Delhi finished at 141/9, falling eight runs short once again.
