Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Giants, Match 10 Match Summary

We have reached the halfway stage of the Bengaluru leg in the 2025 Women’s T20 League, and match number 10 sets up an intriguing battle between Delhi and Gujarat at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. Both teams have struggled for consistency, failing to string consecutive wins together. Delhi have registered two wins from four games but are coming off a disappointing defeat against UP. After letting their opponents off the hook while bowling first, their chase never gained traction and fell well short. A common theme in both of their defeats has been an underwhelming batting display. With a heavy reliance on their top three of Shafali Verma, captain Meg Lanning, and Jemimah Rodrigues, the middle order needs to step up. Marizanne Kapp and Annabel Sutherland, in particular, will have to make their presence felt. Gujarat, meanwhile, did not have the best of home legs in Vadodara, managing just one win from three games. They ended that phase with a heavy defeat to Mumbai, where they were bundled out for 120 and the target was chased down with ease. After a stunning opening-game performance, where they posted 201, their batting has faltered, with Beth Mooney, skipper Ash Gardner, Laura Wolvaardt, and Harleen Deol needing to step up as a unit. However, their bowling has shown promise, with Kashvee Gautam and Priya Mishra making positive strides. Delhi have had the upper hand in this rivalry, winning three of the past four encounters, including the last two. Can they extend their dominance, or will a change in venue spark a turnaround for Gujarat as they aim to begin their Bengaluru leg with a crucial win? We shall find out together.
