The Women’s Premier League (WPL) Super Sunday (Mar 10) encounter will see Delhi Capitals Women (DC-W) take on Royal Challengers Bangalore Women (RCB-W) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in the capital city of New Delhi.
Both teams come into this game after suffering defeats and would be hoping to get their campaign back on track as the business end of the tournament approaches.
Meg Lanning and co. suffered an agonising one-run defeat against UP Warriorz in their last outing while RCB were blown away by the blitz of Gujarat Giants’ and their opening batter Laura Wolvaardt-Beth Mooney.
A win for Delhi would see them qualify for the knockouts and join Mumbai Indias while two points for RCB would keep them firmly in contention for the latter stages of the tournament.
The pitch in Delhi has continued the trend seen during the ODI World Cup last year. High-scoring encounters have been the norm and one might see a similar affair in the evening when the two aggressive teams go toe-to-toe.
