On March 15, in the final of the 2025 Women's Premier League (WPL), Mumbai Indians (MI) won their second WPL title as they beat Delhi Capitals (DC) by eight runs. The match of the team vs DC at Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai was a cliff-hanger affair with brilliant individual performances and spine-tingling moments.

Mumbai Indians' Innings

MI won the toss and decided to bowl. It turned out to be a wise decision, as they managed to pull together a gutsy 149/7 from 20 overs. The high point of their innings was skipper Harmanpreet Kaur's composed innings of 66 off 44 balls. She played in a sensible way, playing boundaries at the right time and piloting her team through tough spots.

Nat Sciver-Brunt added a useful 30 runs. MI, though, lost wickets at regular intervals and the DC's best bowler was Marizanne Kapp with two wickets on 25 runs. But still, MI reached a tough total due to crucial partnerships in middle and late overs of the inning.

Delhi Capitals' Chase

In the 150-run chase, the DC openers played fairly well until pressure started mounting on them by MI's tight spell of bowling. The only one who played well in the initial part with bat as well as at DC's run chase's command was Kapp. The lady played a gritty 40 off 26. She fought hard for her side with timely boundaries, one of which came in the shape of a six.

At the other end, however, MI's bowlers-Sciver-Brunt and Amelia Kerr-especially tried to play big shots. Sciver-Brunt was top class, taking 3 wickets for 30 runs and providing that much-needed breakthrough against DC's Shafali Verma, who was one of the more aggressive batsmen. Amelia Kerr's tight bowling and Jemimah Rodrigues's dismissal, who started aggressively but got out for 12, tilted the match in MI's favor.

After choosing to bat first, Smriti Mandhana gave RCB a good start. The skipper came out with an attacking mindset, making the most runs in the powerplay. She smashed four boundaries and a six, but her quickfire knock of 26 off 13 balls ended when she mistimed a shot and got out earlier. Mumbai Indians got the breakthrough they needed and kept RCB quiet for the rest of the powerplay. MI picked up three more wickets, leaving RCB struggling at 74/4.

With four wickets down, RCB was in deep trouble. That’s when Ellyse Perry stepped in to steady innings, teaming up with Richa Ghosh to rebuild the innings in the tough times. The duo put together a much-needed 50-run partnership before Amanjot Kaur bowled out Richa just as she was starting to settle in. But Perry wasn’t done yet. She reached her fifty in just 30 balls and then shifted to attacking mode, taking on Mumbai’s bowlers in the final overs. It was yet another brilliant knock from the experienced all-rounder as she backed the RCB into the game with a stunning 81 off 43 balls.

Women’s Premier League: Who said what at the toss?

Smriti Mandhana – Today, we would prefer to bat first. As an eliminator, runs on board are definitely important. Hopefully, it will start to quiet down in the second inning. Today, we have not changed. There were many highs and lows during the competition. We are going to gain a lot of benefits from the last game.

Harmanpreet Kaur: In addition to being quite perplexed, we also wanted to bat first. Yastika is returning for Bala today. The last time we batted first, we had a terrific powerplay. After that, we didn’t go any farther. Much has been learned by us. In certain areas, even the bowling was good. It’s a fresh day, so maybe we accomplish what we had planned. It’s critical to remain present in the moment. We wish to give it everything we have since this game is crucial.

In a pivotal match for the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), all-rounder Ellyse Perry demonstrated scorching form by claiming a sensational six-wicket haul in the initial innings against the Mumbai Indians (MI) during the Women’s Premier League (WPL) clash at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium.

After choosing to field upon winning the toss, RCB encountered initial difficulties in securing their first breakthrough during the powerplay. However, once the first wicket fell, the spotlight turned to Perry, who swiftly claimed two wickets in her second over.

Maintaining a consistent line aimed at the stumps and capitalizing on pitch deviations, Perry executed a successful strategy, bagging two significant wickets. In her second over, Perry’s momentum intensified as she first dismissed the opening batter, S Sajana, with a delivery that nipped back and crashed onto the stumps.

The subsequent delivery proved even more crucial as she removed MI’s skipper, Harmanpreet Kaur, with a similar length delivery, inducing an inside edge onto the stumps.

Perry’s exceptional bowling display continued unabated as she clinched two more wickets in her next over. Dismissing Amelia Kerr with a delivery that struck the pads for LBW, Perry further rattled MI by dismissing Amanjot Kaur, who misjudged a backfoot shot and was bowled.

Her brilliance with the ball reached its pinnacle in the final over when she clean-bowled Pooja Vastrakar and trapped Nat Sciver-Brunt leg before wicket, securing her sixth wicket of the innings.

A victory in this match would propel the team into a top-three finish and offer them a shot at the title in the playoffs.

Women’s Premier League: Who said what at the toss?

Harmanpreet Kaur: We would have batted only, we have to bowl well as we are bowling first and hopefully, we will restrict them. This is an important game for us and we would like to do well and put pressure on them.

Beth Mooney: We will bat first. It’s tricky to chase in these wickets in Delhi so we want to stick to the method that we used in the last game. The girls stood up at the right moment and we were happy to get a win. We would like to play with a bit of freedom. Two changes for us.

Women’s Premier League: Who said what at the toss?

Alyssa Healy: It (the toss) doesn’t matter you have to do well both fronts. Yes, the last couple of games have been won by the team batting first but we don’t mind bowling first. It is just one game at a time and focus on that, think about tomorrow’s game later. We have one change.

Harmanpreet Kaur: We are gonna have a bat first. There is no dew in the last couple of games, that’s the only reason. When there is dew chasing is the better option else why to put yourself under pressure. We are going with the same team.
