WPL 2024: UP Warriorz’ Deepti Sharma Shines With An All-round Performance For Ages

Arun Jaitley Stadium: Upon receiving the Player of the Match award during the post-match presentation ceremony, UP Warriorz' spinner Deepti Sharma was informed about her hat-trick, a feat of which she had no prior inkling. “I didn’t know about it,” was Deepti’s simple reply to being informed about the hat-trick.

Deepti's hat-trick during Friday's match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium went unnoticed until she had dismantled Delhi Capitals' dreams of a win. The tension was palpable as Delhi chased down a target of 15 runs off 12 balls. However, Deepti's off spin disrupted their plans, completely altering the dynamics of the match. On the first two balls of the 19th over, Deepti castled Annabel Sutherland, who shaped for a swipe across the line and had Arundhati Reddy holing out to wide long-on. The stadium's giant screens flashed an alert for a hat-trick ball, but Shikha Pandey quickly diffused its chances by hitting a powerful four over Deepti's head.

The entire stadium and the viewers watching the broadcast all believed that the hat-trick was avoided. On the very next ball after being hit for four, Deepti had the last laugh as Shikha chipped a catch straight back to the bowler. But after that, people realised Deepti had indeed taken a hat-trick.
