New Delhi: This year’s Women’s Premier League has been filled with easy victories, breathtaking matches, and excellent batting and bowling performances. Keralites can also rejoice as both Delhi Capitals (DC) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) feature one Keralite player each, with Asha Shobhana, from Ananthapuri, representing RCB and Minnu Mani, from Wayanad, playing for DC. In short, a Keralite player will be lifting the Women’s Premier League title tonight.
Smriti Mandhana’s Bangalore squad faces a formidable challenge in overcoming Delhi’s powerhouse batting lineup, spearheaded by Captain Meg Lanning. Delhi boasts the most explosive batting lineup in the tournament, featuring talents like Tania Bhatia, Jemima Rodriguez, and Shefali Verma, determined to reclaim the title they narrowly missed out on last time. Additionally, Delhi’s bowling unit, led by Marizanne Kapp, Radha Yadav, Shikha Pandey, and Jess Jonassen, adds further strength to their formidable lineup.
On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bangalore pin their hopes on overcoming the struggles of Ellyse Perry and Captain Smriti Mandhana. Despite their inconsistencies, RCB’s strength lies in the all-round excellence of Ellyse Perry , a vital asset during crucial stages of the game. However, RCB faces an uphill battle against Delhi; having lost to them in all four matches leading up to the final.
The highly anticipated match will take place at Arun Jaitley Stadium today at 7:30 p.m. Sports enthusiasts can catch the live action on channel Star Sports18, with the option to watch the match streaming on Jio Cinema’s app and website.
