Match Preview
In the last league-stage clash of the Indian Premier League, Delhi Capitals Women will go head-to-head against Gujarat Giants. Delhi Capitals Women currently sit at the top spot in the standings with five out of seven wins, whereas Gujarat, like previous year, are at the bottom-most spot, and are likely to finish the year on the same note. While Delhi is just a win away from securing their playoff spot, Gujarat would aim to finish the season on a victorious note.
Pitch Report
The Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi has been a difficult terrain to bat on, and the surface is as flat as it could be during the ODI World Cup 2023. Big scores are expected to be posted while batting first, and the same conditions are expected to be there as Delhi clashes against Gujarat. The past games have witnessed high-scoring affairs at Arun Jaitley, and a highly favourable batting condition is expected in the next game.
Delhi Capitals Women
Meg Lanning is leading Delhi Capitals Women in the second edition of the Women’s Premier League. The team has a strong batting lineup including Lanning, Alice Capsey, Jemimah Rodrigues, Shafali Varma, and Taniya Bhatia. On the other hand, names such as Jess Jonassen, Radha Yadav, Marizanne Kapp, and Annabel Sutherland are key members of the bowling lineup. All the players have done a decent job recently, guiding the side to several wins in past fixtures.

Gujarat Giants
Beth Mooney’s Gujarat has had a poor season this year and they struggled to put up some decent shows this year. The team could only win two games out of seven matches in the league. While some of their batters have showcased a decent form throughout the season, the bowlers clearly failed to back the side and attack the rivals.
