‘Kya din aa gaye yaar’ – Fans react after Gujarat Giants lose to Delhi Capitals by 25 runs

Gujarat Giants continued to endure more misery as they lost yet another game during WPL 2024 season. On Sunday Beth Mooney’s side went down Meg Lanning’s Delhi Capitals in Bengaluru. For the Delhi side it was a completely dominant performance right from the start of the game.

It was Gujarat who won the toss and chose to bowl first keeping in with the tradition of the tournament. Both sides made two changes to their team with Marizzane Kapp being ruled out of the game. For Gujarat it was the loss of Harleen Deol and Sneh Rana that was a huge loss.

Australia duo of Meg Lanning and Jess Jonnasen were the bright lights with the bat and ball. The veteran Australian batter and Delhi skipper scored a brilliant half-century with the bat. Gujarat Giants didn’t show their potential with the bat as they fell to yet another loss this season.

Delhi Capitals romp home to easy win –

Meg Lanning and her Delhi Capitals team were asked to bat first during the Women’s Premier League 2024 game on Sunday. Shafali Varma played two glorious shots before falling for 13. Meghna Singh got the wicket of Varma as Delhi openers added 20 runs for the 1^st wicket.

Alice Capsey and Meg Lanning then added 38 runs for the 2^nd wicket before Meghna Singh struck again. After scoring 27 off 17 balls, Capsey was caught by Tanuja Kanwar to give Singh her 2^nd wicket. Mannat Kashyap got the big wicket of Jemimah Rodrigues for 7.

With wickets falling at regular intervals, Meg Lanning kept the scorecard ticking. The 31-year-old scored yet another amazing half-century in WPL. Her knock came off 31 balls with 6 fours and a six before becoming the 3^rd wicket to fall for Delhi. This knock helped The Capitals post a competitive 163 on the board.

Shikha Pandey struck first when she went past the defense of Laura Wolvaardt for a duck. Jess Jonnasen then struck twide to dismiss Beth Mooney and Phoebe Litchfield. Ashleigh Gardner top scored with 40 as none of the other Gujarat batters put up a fight. Radha Yadav and Jess Jonnassen picked three wickets each as Delhi Capitals went to the top of the table.

Today was best chance for Gujarat Giants to win the match. They won the toss after losing many times earlier. DC rested Kapp. Total also not that unchaseable. Missed opportunity. #WPL2024 #GGvDC #TATAWPL
