WPL 2024: Clinical Delhi Capitals Beat Gujarat Giants By 25 Runs To Take Top Spot

Clinical Delhi Capitals: Skipper Meg Lanning struck a half-century while left-arm spinners Jess Jonassen and Radha Yadav claimed three wickets each as Delhi Capitals scored their third successive win by defeating Gujarat Giants by 25 runs in Match 10 of the Women's Premier League (WPL) on Sunday. Delhi Capitals thus moved to the top of the points table on a better Net Run Rate.

Lanning blasted six boundaries and one six during her 41-ball 55 as last edition's runner-up Delhi Capitals posted a modest 163/8 after being asked to bat first by Gujarat Giants. The bowlers then got into action with Jonassen and Radha Yadav, who bagged the Purple Cap, spinning a web to throttle the Gujarat Giants innings as Delhi Capitals won by 25 runs at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Jonassen claimed 3-22 and Radha Yadav bagged 3-20 in her four overs as Delhi Capitals restricted Gujarat Giants to 138/8 in 20 overs as they romped to their third win in a row. They now have six points from four matches, the same as defending champions Mumbai Indians, who also have six points but have an inferior 0-402 as against to 1.251 of Delhi Capitals. UP Warriorz and Royal Challengers Bangalore have four points each and occupy the third and fourth spots respectively in the five-team competition. Gujarat Titans are placed at the bottom with zero points as they have lost all their four matches so far this season.
