WPL 2025: Sciver-Brunt’s Lone Battle Lifts MI To 164 As Delhi Bowlers Strike Late
With Harmanpreet Kaur: Natalie Sciver-Brunt slammed an unbeaten 75 and Harmanpreet Kaur blasted an explosive 42 but Mumbai Indians could manage only 164 all out in 19.1 overs against Delhi Capitals in the second match of the Women's Premier League season 3 at the Kotambi Stadium here on Saturday.
Despite a strong middle-over acceleration, the Mumbai Indians lost wickets in clusters, with Annabel Sutherland (3.1-0-34-1) and Shikha Pandey (3-0-21-2) leading the bowling charge for Delhi.
Opting to bowl first, Delhi Capitals struck early as Shikha Pandey removed Hayley Matthews for a two-ball duck in the opening over. The delivery swung in sharply, catching the thick edge of Matthews’ bat, and Meg Lanning completed a sharp catch at slip. Yastika Bhatia and Natalie Sciver-Brunt looked to consolidate, but the scoring remained cautious. However, Alice Capsey’s introduction in the second over proved costly, as the Mumbai batters capitalized on loose deliveries, with Yastika and Sciver-Brunt finding crucial boundaries.
