The inaugural edition of the Women’s Premier League will finally have its first-ever champion when Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians cross swords in the summit clash on Sunday, March 26, at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. While Delhi Capitals topped the points table to get a direct entry into the final, Mumbai Indians defeated UP Warriorz in the Eliminator to book the last remaining spot.

The two sides will be locking horns for the third time this season. After Mumbai Indians defeated Delhi in their first meeting, the Meg Lanning-led side planned a perfect act of revenge and beat Harmanpreet Kaur’s Mumbai in their second face-off. It will be interesting to see who gets the upper hand in the forthcoming clash.

Both Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians have put up dominating performances in the WPL 2023 so far, and the two sides finished with 12 points to their name, having won six games and losing two. Harmanpreet Kaur and Co have won a total of seven games so far, six in the league stage and the eliminator. Since both teams have a winning momentum, the final will be even more interesting.

As for Mumbai Indians, the bowlers and all-rounders are in great form. Issy Wong took the first hat-trick of the tournament in the Eliminator game and will be aiming to repeat a similar performance against Delhi in the final. On the other hand, the Capitals too are in tremendous form and Meg Lanning being a proven match-winner, her captaincy will be the biggest advantage for the table-toppers.

Pitch and Conditions

The surface at the Brabourne Stadium has supported both batters and bowlers in the tournament so far. Of the total 10 games played here in the WPL, teams batting first have won four times while the teams chasing the total have won six games. The average first innigns total on this turf is 169, and hence the teams would aim to post a total above 180.

Probable Playing XI for DC-W vs MI-W

Delhi Capitals Women

Meg Lanning has led her side brilliantly in the side so far. Delhi Capitals became the first team to enter the final, and got plenty of time to prepare for the summit clash. The side might not make a change to their playing combination so as to keep the winning momentum going.

Probable Playing XI: Meg Lanning (c), Shafali Verma, Alice Capsey, Jemimah Rodrigues, Marizanne Kapp, Taniya Bhatia (wk), Jess Jonassen, Radha Yadav, Arundhati Reddy, Shikha Pandey, Poonam Yadav

Mumbai Indians Women

Having defeated UP Warriorz just a couple of days before the summit clash, the in-form Mumbai Indians will be riding high on confidence in the ultimate contest of the tournament. Harmanpreet Kaur will be unlikely to make any changes to her side and will stick to the same combination.

Probable Playing XI: Hayley Matthews, Yastika Bhatia (wk), Nat Sciver-Brunt, Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Amelia Kerr, Pooja Vastrakar, Issy Wong, Amanjot Kaur, Humaira Kazi, Jintimani Kalita, Saika Ishaque
