(Image: WPL/BCCI) Opting to bat first, Delhi Capitals suffered a collapse to be reduced to 79 for 9 in 16 overs but posted a respectable total of 131 for 9, thanks to a 52-run partnership for the unbroken 10th wicket between Shikha Pandey (27 not out) and Radha Yadav (27 not out).

They then went to defeat UP Warriorz by 72 runs in the play-offs. Shafali scored a 4-ball 11 before falling against Wong while attempting an attacking shot against the England pacer. She found great support from West Indies all-rounder Hayley Matthews, who picked the same number of wickets to help Mumbai restrict Delhi for 131/9 in 20 overs. Mumbai after being asked to bowl first by Delhi skipper Meg Lanning, who finished as the leading run-scorer of the tournament, didn't take long to make inroads. Harmanpreet Kaur-led Mumbai Indians created history as they became the first team to win the inaugural edition of the Women's Premier League (WPL). The outcome left many Mumbai supporters ecstatic but Delhi fans were left irked with a controversial decision, which cost their side the wicket of explosive opener Shafali Verma.

After stellar show from bowlers, Sciver-Brunt's cool unbeaten 60 against Delhi Capitals in the final gives Harmanpreet & Co inaugural WPL title.

With a 38-run Lanning and Marizanne Kapp rebuilt and seemed to take them through the road of redemption. And how she wrapped up the game. Jemimah sweet-spotted a low, slow full-toss but straight to the point fielder. The ever-giggling, crew-cut Isabelle Wong could barely believe her fortune when she pouched all her three wickets, the first three of Delhi’s scalps, with benign full tosses. It was not an aberration, and the gifts kept on winking at Wong. Capsey’s off-breaks oozed negligible threat, and collected a pair of boundaries, the first a brutal sweep and the second a polished reverse-sweep. She and Radha Yadav then cracked 52 runs off 24 balls, before she masterminded the run out of Kaur and delivered four thrifty overs, costing just 23 runs. Her partner Amelie Kerr then snuffed Delhi’s last lingering hopes with fours off the fourth and fifth balls. She fittingly wrapped up the game with a scooped-over, her most audacious stroke of the night. Together, they whittled down the target to a manageable 37 off 24 ball. Both were content in strolling along at five runs an over, in pursuit of 131, a target not too steep, but not a stroll either. She could indulge a bit in the end, because such indulgences were rare in her unbeaten 60 off 55 balls, a knock straight from the MS Dhoni finishing school.
