Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals have each certified for the playoffs of the inaugural version of the Women’s Premier League. Now, for these two sides, the battle is to see who will end on prime of the standings and safe direct entry to the ultimate on March 26.

The final time these two groups met, it was a runaway victory for Harmanpreet Kaur’s Mumbai – an eight-wicket win with 5 overs to spare at DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. Then, a powerful and largely untested batting unit stuttered when it got here up in opposition to a bowling unit with as a lot depth and efficacy as Mumbai’s. After registering two 200+ scores on the time, Delhi Capitals folded for 105. Meg Lanning will undoubtedly have revenge on her thoughts however the extra quick want is to iron out tiny chinks within the armour which might be getting large enough for oppositions to use.

Rediscovering batting rhythm

Delhi’s batting order stays potent however the consistency has dropped a good bit, particularly from the opening pair. Shafali Verma and Lanning shared memorable opening stands within the first half of the league – from the 162-run partnership in opposition to Royal Challengers Bangalore or the 107-run stand which gave them a 10-wicket win over Gujarat Giants. The century stands for the DC prime order have since dried up as has Lanning’s maintain on the orange cap, with Sophie Devine changing into the brand new holder of the highest runscorer reward. Marizanne Kapp and Alice Capsey, who often are available No.3 and 4 (not strictly in that order) have had performances of notice however not constantly sufficient for Lanning and Shafali to breathe straightforward after they fall early.

Delhi swapped out Tara Norris, their affiliate choice who allowed them to discipline 5 overseas gamers, for Poonam Yadav to bolster spin in opposition to Gujarat Giants. This gamble didn’t repay. Arundhati Reddy continues to be an underused bowling choice and despite the fact that she struck with the bat fairly commendably to maintain Delhi within the sport, her sparse use means Lanning is successfully selecting a group with ten and a half gamers. Either a severe bowling choice like Titas Sadhu and even bringing again Norris and swapping in somebody like a Jasia Akhtar could be an choice price attempting.

Foot again on the pedal

Mumbai lately suffered its first lack of the season, by the hands of the UP Warriorz. This could have been a blip given how Mi has proven exceptional cohesion, in spirit and efficiency. With simply two video games left, together with this one and having already certified, these two video games may give MI the choice to contemplate fielding the likes of Chloe Tryon.

However, Mumbai can and possibly will undertake a ‘why fix something that’s not damaged’ strategy to this and discipline an unchanged squad until a last-minute emergency (like Pooja Vastrakar’s harm a couple of video games in the past) calls for it.

Outcomes of the sport

A win for Mumbai will seal the highest spot within the league of their identify. A win for Delhi will assist the facet draw stage with Mumbai on factors and make that remaining encounter for each groups that rather more essential.
