With that, the third edition of the Women’s T20 League comes to an epic close. The tournament has only grown bigger and better, showcasing world-class talent, nail-biting thrillers, and unforgettable moments. Women’s cricket is on the rise, and this league is leading the charge. We hope you’ve enjoyed the ride as much as we’ve loved bringing you the action. But the cricketing carnival doesn’t stop here – next up is the highly anticipated Indian T20 League, set to kick off on March 22nd, with defending champions Kolkata taking on Bengaluru at the iconic Eden Gardens. The action will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but you can tune in early for all the build-up. We hope to see you then. For now, cheers and goodbye!

That’s a wrap on yet another sensational season of the Women’s T20 League. Harmanpreet Kaur hoists the trophy high, surrounded by her elated teammates, support staff, and the owner as Mumbai celebrates yet another historic triumph. The confetti rains down, the fireworks light up the night sky, and the sheer joy on their faces says it all. They’ve earned this moment after an incredible campaign. The cameras flash, the cheers echo through the stadium, and this celebration is far from over. Mumbai will savour this victory for a long time to come. Meanwhile, Delhi will have to wait another year for their shot at glory, but their journey has been nothing short of inspiring.

It's now time for the victorious skipper, Harmanpreet Kaur, to step up and collect the award for winning the title before she joins for a chat. Harmanpreet credits the victory to a great team effort and congratulates Delhi for their impressive tournament. She acknowledges that her team did not start as they wanted but showed resilience and fought hard. Reflecting on her innings, she admits it wasn’t easy when she walked in to bat. She focused on rotating the strike and, with Nat Sciver-Brunt at the other end, aimed to keep things simple and take calculated risks. She feels 150 was a decent total, but in pressure games, it often feels like chasing 180. She gives full credit to the bowlers for delivering crucial breakthroughs in the Powerplay, which ultimately won them the game. She also highlights the importance of one-on-one meetings within the team to provide better clarity on individual roles

It's time for Delhi's skipper, Meg Lanning, to collect the Runner-up trophy. Meg says they had another good season but unfortunately couldn't get over the line again and despite the disappointment, Mumbai played really well and congratulates them. Adds that 150 was a good total to chase, but they didn't quite get it together in the chase but she is very proud of the team. Mentions that there is absolutely no substitute for performing well on the day and Mumbai did that and deservedly won the game. States that they haven't been able to put up strong performances in the final and they had put themselves in good positions but ended on the wrong side and that's how this game can be at times.

Next up, the match officials receive their mementoes in recognition of their outstanding officiating throughout the tournament.

Earlier in the game, Delhi had Mumbai on the ropes, applying relentless pressure and choking the scoring rate, leaving Mumbai struggling at 28/2 at the end of 8 overs. The bowlers gave nothing away, setting the tone for a dominant start. However, skipper Harmanpreet Kaur stepped up when it mattered most, launching a counterattack alongside Natalie Sciver-Brunt, taking Mumbai from a position of distress to one of promise. Harmanpreet's gritty half-century provided Mumbai with much-needed momentum, putting Delhi on the back foot. Just when Mumbai looked set to push for a big total, N Charani struck to break the threatening 89-run stand, sparking a late collapse. Delhi seized the moment, picking up wickets in quick succession to restrict Mumbai to a below-par total of 149. For Delhi, Marizanne Kapp was sensational, setting the tone with an outstanding spell of 4 overs, conceding just 11 runs and claiming two crucial wickets.

Just when Delhi looked back in the hunt, Natalie Sciver-Brunt delivered when it mattered most, breaking the crucial partnership between Kapp and young Niki Prasad at the perfect moment. From there, the task became too steep, leaving Niki Prasad with an uphill battle alongside the tail. Mumbai’s bowling unit executed flawlessly under pressure and Natalie Sciver-Brunt starred with three wickets. Amelia Kerr chipped in with two while the rest of the attack kept it tight, each taking a wicket apiece.

Mumbai sensed an opportunity and turned the screws, maintaining relentless pressure. They didn’t let any batter settle, reducing Delhi to 66/5 with the crucial wicket of Jemimah Rodrigues, who had been holding the innings together. At that stage, Mumbai looked in complete control. But then came a spirited fightback from Marizanne Kapp, who stood tall under pressure, finding crucial boundaries at just the right moments. Her onslaught on Saika Ishaque in the 16th over swung the momentum back in Delhi’s favor, bringing them within 35 runs of victory with four overs to go.

Chasing a modest 150, Delhi seemed to have the target well within reach at the halfway mark. They even started on a positive note, but things quickly unraveled as both openers fell in quick succession. With their top three dismissed for just 37 runs, the pressure mounted on a middle order that had struggled for form all season.

Pure ecstasy for Mumbai’s players and fans as they celebrate yet another championship, while heartbreak looms over Delhi, suffering their third consecutive final defeat. Sometimes, fate just doesn’t align, and Delhi will have to wait longer to finally lift the trophy. But tonight, it’s Mumbai’s moment! They held their nerves at the right time, delivered when it mattered most and proved yet again why they are a champion side!

MUMBAI ETCH THEIR NAME IN HISTORY - AGAIN! They win by 8 runs and are crowned champions of the third edition of the Women's T20 League, securing their second title in three seasons! What a team! They have once again shown why they are one of the most consistent and dominant franchises, playing like true champions to defeat Delhi once more, repeating their triumph from the inaugural season at the very same venue!

Natalie Sciver-Brunt To Niki Prasad

Mumbai clinch the 2025 Women's T20 League title! The inaugural champions lift their second trophy, and the celebrations erupt in the Mumbai camp! Coming to the delivery, this was on a back of a length, on off, Niki swatted it to the right of long on where Shabnim Ismail ran to her right and cut it off.

19.5

Natalie Sciver-Brunt To N Charani

That should do it for Mumbai! Off-pace delivery, angling into the pads, on the fuller side, N Charani smears it to deep backward square leg for a single.

19.4

Natalie Sciver-Brunt To Niki Prasad

Pace on now, on a back of a length, Niki swings for the pull but gets it high on the bat. It dribbles only as far as deep mid-wicket. Just a single. Delhi need 11 runs from 2 balls.

19.3

Natalie Sciver-Brunt To Niki Prasad

Well bowled! Away from the hitting arc of the batter, near the tramline on off, back-of-the-hand slower one, Niki skips down the track and swings for the hills but fails to connect.

19.2

Natalie Sciver-Brunt To N Charani

From around the wicket to the left-hander, this is slanted in, on middle and leg, on a length, Charani drives it to long on and brings Niki back on strike.

19.1

Natalie Sciver-Brunt To Niki Prasad

This is the off-cutter, on a length, on middle, Niki heaves it on the bounce to deep mid-wicket. It goes straight to the fielder and they cross. Mumbai won't mind it one bit. 13 needed off 5 for Delhi.

Delhi need 14 runs off the final over and more importantly for them, Niki Prasad will be on strike! It all boils down to this moment! Natalie Sciver-Brunt to bowl the final over.
