Sophine devine

DY Patil Stadium: Gujarat Giants (GG) all-rounder Sophie Devine has attributed her record-breaking smash of Delhi Capitals (DC) off-spinner Sneh Rana for 32 runs in the 2026 WPL to favourable match-ups and keeping things simple.

In the WPL 2026 match between DC and GG at the DY Patil Stadium, which the latter won narrowly, Sophie smacked Sneh for two fours and four sixes to claim the record for the most expensive over in WPL’s history. Incidentally, Sophie herself had scored 32 runs in an over off Sneh back in a T20I in Bengaluru in 2015.

"No, not at all. I think we've spoken a bit as a group around match-ups and who our best targets are. For me, off-spin was certainly the case. I guess the way that we started the innings and being able to be really aggressive and take them on, there was no set plan prior to that that we were going to have a real crack.
