By IANS News January 10, 2026 • 12:42 PM View: 357

ODI World Cup: India star Jemimah Rodrigues, now prepared to take on her role as captain, is eager to lead Delhi Capitals, who have reached the finals three times, in the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026 and anticipates a successful season.

Jemimah, one of the stars of India's triumph in the ICC Women's ODI World Cup a few months ago, with a majestic century against Australia in the semi-finals, has been a standout performer for Delhi Capitals since the start of the WPL, helping them reach three successive finals.

The 24-year-old right-handed batter has been promoted to the captaincy for WPL 2026, with the franchise deciding to let go of Australian great Meg Lanning, their captain for the first three editions of the event.
