In fact, the first over of Delhi Capitals’ innings was being bowled by Australian team’s star player Megan Schutt from Royal Challengers Bangalore. Shefali Verma was on strike on the first ball of her first over. Megan bowled such a tremendous ball that Shefali had no break with it. The Australian player’s ball fell on the pitch and came in fast, in which Shefali was completely lost. In such a situation, the ball passed between his bat and pad and went straight to his stumps, due to which he was clean bowled without opening the account i.e. on zero.
Delhi Capitals won the match by 6 wickets
Batting first after losing the toss, Royal Challengers Bangalore, captained by Smriti Mandhana, put 150 runs on the board for the loss of 4 wickets in the allotted 20 overs. In such a situation, DC achieved the target of 151 runs with 2 balls and 6 wickets remaining. However, this was Delhi Capitals’ fourth win in the Women’s Premier League 2023, after which they are now placed second in the points table with 8 points. At the same time, Mumbai Indians remain at number one with 10 points.
