Kanika continues to bowl, with the batters now relying on quick running between the wickets as the ball comes off the bat very slowly. After a period of frustration, Bryce finally breaks through with a FOUR! She dances down the track and slashes the ball through point for a much-needed boundary.
Wareham bowls her third over and almost takes a wicket! Kapp sweeps and edges it straight to Kanika at short fine leg, but the youngster fails to grab the catch. There’s no boundary in this over.
Renuka Singh is on fire! She delivers a perfect ball to Sutherland, who strikes it firmly, but straight to the fielder! It’s a big wicket for Renuka as Sutherland, who was looking to raise the tempo, is dismissed.
The ball is pitched up just outside off, and Sutherland drives it beautifully with great timing, but it heads straight to extra cover. Smriti Mandhana takes a sharp catch as it comes at her quickly. Sutherland is out for 19 off 13 balls, including a six.
Georgia Wareham is brought into the attack, and on her first ball, she nearly gets Lanning lbw. The very next ball, Jemimah makes room and slashes the ball to long off for a boundary.
Then, a stumping attempt is made! Richa Ghosh is extremely confident that Jemimah is out of her crease, and the decision is sent upstairs. After review, it’s given OUT! Jemimah appears to have frozen and failed to get her leg back inside the crease in time.
DCW 62/3 (7.3)
Jemimah is handling the damage control as Ekta Bisht comes into the attack. Jemimah sweeps for a single, then follows up with a stunning SIX, sending the ball soaring over the covers. The next delivery sees Jemimah attempt a reverse sweep, but she misses, as does Richa.
DC get a FOUR. Smriti Mandhana fires in a direct hit, but Jemimah looks to have made her ground. The umpire reviews the decision—NOT OUT.
Renuka Singh begins her second over, with Richa Ghosh moving up to the stumps as the pacer hunts for another wicket. Lanning, however, is patient, waiting for the swing, and cuts the ball beautifully between the fielders to the third man for a FOUR! Renuka then bowls another wide.
A review is taken, as the ball seemed to swing a lot, but Richa Ghosh appears confident. Lanning stands firm, and the ball is adjudged to be going down leg. Lanning then cuts it again, this time sending it to backward point for another FOUR.
DCW 20/1 (3.3)

Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma are opening for Delhi Capitals, while Renuka Singh is bowling for Royal Challengers Bengaluru. And just like that, Shafali Verma is gone, what a start for RCB. Verma walks back for a golden duck, dismissed by Renuka Singh. The full delivery swung in on off, and Verma is caught by Mandhana. Shafali Verma departs for 0 off 1 ball.
Jemimah Rodrigues comes to the crease.
DC-W 1/1 (0.2)
Mithali Raj and Anjum Chopra provide pitch insights: The same surface used last evening, with 58 and 50-meter square boundaries and 70 meters down the ground. It’s a used surface, but there’s no visible wear and tear. The pitch is hard and well-rolled, and it’s expected to skid and keep a little low. There are visible cracks, and if the bowler targets these.
Delhi Capitals Women (Playing XI): Meg Lanning(c), Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Annabel Sutherland, Jess Jonassen, Marizanne Kapp, Sarah Bryce(w), Shikha Pandey, Radha Yadav, Arundhati Reddy, Minnu Mani
Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women (Playing XI): Smriti Mandhana(c), Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, Ellyse Perry, Raghvi Bist, Richa Ghosh(w), Kanika Ahuja, Georgia Wareham, Kim Garth, Ekta Bisht, Joshitha VJ, Renuka Thakur Singh
Royal Challengers Bengaluru have won the toss and elected to bowl first.
Following the contentious run-out incidents in the February 15 match between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians, the WPL has updated its rules regarding LED bails. From now on, umpires will only consider the wicket broken when both spigots of the bail are fully dislodged, not just when the lights flash.
This change comes after it was found that the bails were lighting up at the slightest disturbance, even when one spigot remained in place. The new rule clarifies that a run-out or stumping decision will be based on the moment the bail is completely off its groove.
This adjustment follows debate over multiple run-out calls in the Capitals-Mumbai game.
Delhi Capitals: Alice Capsey, Arundhati Reddy, Jemimah Rodrigues, Jess Jonassen, Marizanne Kapp, Meg Lanning (C), Minnu Mani, Radha Yadav, Shafali Verma, Shikha Pandey, Sneha Deepthi, Taniya Bhatia, Titas Sadhu, Annabel Sutherland, N Charani, Nandini Kashyap, Sarah Bryce, Niki Prasad
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Smriti Mandhana(c), Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, Ellyse Perry, Raghvi Bist, Richa Ghosh(w), Kanika Ahuja, Georgia Wareham, Kim Garth, Prema Rawat, Joshitha VJ, Renuka Thakur Singh, Jagravi Pawar, Heather Graham, Sabbhineni Meghana, Sneh Rana, Ekta Bisht, Nuzhat Parween, Charlie Dean
