WPL 2023 updated points table: Mumbai remain unbeaten in the tournament

There’s no stopping Mumbai Indians in this tournament. The women in blue put on a clinical performance against Delhi Capitals on Thursday at the DY Patil Stadium in Nav Mumbai. Delhi Capitals were bowled out for just 108 runs in 18 overs. Mumbai comfortably chased the target in 15 overs with 8 wickets in hand. With this win, Mumbai becomes the only team to remain unbeaten in this tournament. 

Mumbai made sure its batters wouldn’t have a lot of work to do. Wong, Matthews, and Saika grabbed three-fers. As Ishaque struck twice in one over to get rid of Jemimah and Lanning, the Caps had already lost three early wickets but were on track to make a strong comeback. After that, they dropped like nine pins and just barely reached triple digits. Mumbai would like an early end because they don’t have much work to do. We’ll be back in five to ten minutes. Wang just gave 10 runs in her 4 overs and also picked up 3 wickets. Saika is getting wickets for fun and has always been the difference.

In the powerplay, Yastika and Matthews set the tone, with the former particularly outshining with her stroke-play. The run chase was over in the powerplay itself with outstanding hitting. Harmanpreet and Sciver-Brunt added the closing touches. There are many things to consider for the Capitals, who have already dropped their first game of the year and have had doubts cast on their batting, which up until a few hours ago appeared unstoppable.

Delhi Capitals XI: Meg Lanning (c), Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Marizanne Kapp, Alice Capsey, Jess Jonassen, Taniya Bhatia (wk), Minnu Mani, Shikha Pandey, Radha Yadav, and Tara Norris.

Mumbai Indians XI: Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Yastika Bhatia (wk), Hayley Matthews, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Amelia Kerr, Pooja Vastrakar, Issy Wong, Humaira Kazi, Amanjot Kaur, Jintimani Kalita, and Saika Ishaque.
