WPL 2025: Promotion To No.3 Was A Surprise, Says Jess Jonassen After Helping DC Win
The Delhi Capitals: Delhi Capitals' Australian all-rounder Jess Jonassen was surprised by the opportunity to bat up the order as she struck an unbeaten 61 to help her team beat Gujarat Giants by six wickets with 29 balls to spare in the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2025 match on Tuesday.
Jonassen, who claimed 1-24 with the ball, made the most of being promoted to No.3 as she blazed to 61 not out off 32 balls and raised 74 runs for the second wicket partnership with Shafali Verma, who struck a 27-ball 44, to help Delhi Capitals reach 131/4 in 15.1 overs to win the match with 29 balls to spare.
It was the Delhi Capitals bowlers who made the victory possible as Marizanne claimed 2-17 and Shikha Pandey bagged 2-18 to land early blows while Annabel Sutherland took 2-20 in the middle overs as Gujarat Giants were restricted to a modest 127/9 despite a late charge by Bharti Fulmani, who struck 40 not out off 29 balls, hitting four boundaries and two sixes.
