That's all from today's game! A convincing victory for Delhi as they make their way into the play-offs of the Women's T20 League. We now have a day's break but the Women's T20 League action continues on Monday, the 3rd of March. We have a game lined up between Up and Gujarat at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). Join us early for the pre-match buildup and live coverage of the game. Until then, take care, and cheers!
Shafali Verma is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH! She starts saying that she feels good to win it for the team and also expresses her happiness. Continues that she felt the momentum early on in the inning so she just had to calm herself down and get set on the crease. Also says that their focus was on rotating the strike and go big for the loose deliveries. Ends up saying that it would have been difficult for them if the target would crossed 170 but she was happy to get the target on the plate.
Meg Lanning the skipper of Delhi, says that she is happy with the performance of the girls. She continues that they need to work hard with their fielding. She also says that they have come back and they will look to carry it forward. Continues that the the energy is the same from last night and also shares that they had a great mindset today. Ends up saying they knew that they had to beat Bengaluru to step their foot off the line.
... THE PRESENTATION CEREMONY ...
Jess Jonassen credited her successful innings to the left-hand-right-hand combination with Shafali Verma, which disrupted the Bengaluru's bowlers' rhythm. Jonassen praised Verma's exceptional ball-striking and strategic play, and acknowledged the team's growing momentum. She also commended debutant Charani's impressive control.
Smriti Mandhana, the skipper of Bengaluru, acknowledges Perry's excellent batting. She praised Raghvi Bist's promotion and Renuka Singh's Powerplay performances. She appreciated fan support, apologized for not securing wins, and vowed to return stronger after their week-long break.
Earlier in the game, Bengaluru posted 147/5 in 20 overs against Delhi. They were off to a rocky start as they lost their skipper early on but gained momentum after that. Ellyse Perry's unbeaten 60 and Raghvi Bist's 33 propelled Bengaluru, despite Delhi's bowlers restricting the scoring rate. Shikha Pandey, N Charani, and Marizanne Kapp shared the wickets for Delhi.
Jess Jonassen, in particular, continues to thrive in her new role at the top order, registering her second half-century. Her impressive form has been a significant factor in Delhi's success. Bengaluru's bowlers, on the other hand, were left reeling, with Renuka Singh Thakur being the only one to claim a wicket, that of Meg Lanning. They failed to contain Delhi's batting onslaught which ultimately led to their demise.
DELHI MAKE IT TO THE NEXT ROUND! They're one step closer to the title! A dominant batting display from the Delhi batters as they effortlessly chased down a target of 148 runs! Despite losing skipper Meg Lanning early, Shafali Verma and Jess Jonassen took charge, unleashing a barrage of runs against the Bengaluru bowlers. The duo's relentless pressure never allowed the opposition to settle, with both players notching half-centuries to take their team to a convincing victory.
