WPL 2026: Jemimah Will Explore Another Side Of Herself As DC’s Captain, Says Anjum
Jemimah was the vice-captain to Australia’s multiple-time World Cup-winning captain Meg Lanning when DC finished as runners-up in three successive WPL seasons -- 2023, 2024, and 2025. But with Meg becoming the skipper of UP Warriorz (UPW), Jemimah steps into the leadership role for DC for the first time.
“See, expectations will be there with the franchise also. But for me, it's about when you entrust a player with a role, they start understanding themselves in a different light altogether. So, she's captained Mumbai and been there at the helm. But now leading a franchise team is a different ballgame altogether. Now she will also explore another side of herself, not only as a batter or a fielder, but also as a captain,” Anjum told IANS in an exclusive conversation on the eve of the competition’s commencement.
