Mumbai Indians Women Win Second WPL Title with Thrilling 8-Run Victory Over Delhi Capitals On Saturday, March 15, the final of the third edition of the Women's Premier League (WPL) was a humdinger as Mumbai Indians (MI) defeated Delhi Capitals (DC) by eight runs at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai, to win their second title. After MI posted a total of 149/7 on the board, thanks mainly to the fifty scored by captain Harmanpreet Kaur, the DC batting lineup had an early collapse before Marizanne Kapp played an exceptional innings, but it wasn't enough as they lost their third consecutive WPL final.

Defending a target of 150 runs, MI restricted DC to 141/9 in 20 overs, with Nat Sciver-Brunt returning with figures of 3/30. Meanwhile, Amelia Kerr bagged two wickets. For DC, Marizanne Kapp smacked 40 runs off 26 balls.

Jess Jonassen and Jemimah Rodrigues are currently batting for Delhi and trying to stage a fightback. The WPL 2025 Final began wih DC skipper Meg Lanning winning the toss and opting to bowl. Delhi got a strong start as Mumbai also lost both openers Hayley Matthews (3) and Yastika Bhatia (8) early.

Harmanpreet Kaur played a captain’s knock as she led her side’s comeback with a quickfire knock of 66 runs off 44 balls, and stitched a partnership with Nat Sciver-Brunt (30). For DC, Marizanne Kapp, Nallapureddy Charani and Jess Jonassen took two-wicket hauls respectively.
