Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Giants, Live Score, WPL 2023: Gujarat Giants win

Gujarat Giants have done it. They remain in the race with an 11-run win. Most importantly, it’s their second win in the tournament, out of 6 games played so far. Sneh Rana will be a happy captain as her side defended a low score of 147 successfully. With this win, they climb up on the points table to the fourth spot, dethroning Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Chasing 148 for victory, Delhi Capitals were bundled out for 136 in 18.4 overs, with their entire top and middle-order, including captain Meg Lanning (18) and Shafali Verma (8), failing to impress.

Marizanne Kapp was the highest run-getter for Delhi Capitals, scoring a 29-ball 36 and her run out at the team’s score on 97/6 took the wind out of the side’s sails. Tailenders Arundhati Reddy (25) and Shikha Pandey (8 not out) provided some entertainment with a 35-run partnership but to no avail.
