    WPL 2026: ‘Really Special To Get That Opportunity And Be Out There,’ Says DC’s Lucy Hamilton On Debut

    Royal Challengers Bengaluru: 19-year-old Lucy Hamilton said that getting her Women’s Premier League (WPL) debut cap from the Delhi Capitals was "really special" and her aim heading into the game was to stay calm, back her strengths, and do the best that she can for the team.

    The Australian began her WPL career strongly, making a notable lower-order contribution in her debut for DC during their match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Saturday.

    After slipping to 10 for 4, Delhi Capitals faced early pressure but displayed resilience to recover and reach a competitive total of 166. Opener Shafali Verma spearheaded the comeback with a steady 62 off 41 balls. Meanwhile, Hamilton, batting at number nine, added vital late runs with a brisk 36 off 19 balls, including three fours and three sixes, helping the Capitals set a defendable target.
