WPL 2026: Harmanpreet, Sciver-Brunt Star As MI Thrash DC By 50 Runs (Ld)
DY Patil Stadium: Defending champions Mumbai Indians (MI) bounced back within 24 hours of their 2026 WPL season opening loss to seal an emphatic 50-run victory over Delhi Capitals (DC) at the DY Patil Stadium on Saturday.
Nat Sciver‑Brunt and captain Harmanpreet Kaur set the tone with authoritative knocks of 70 and 74 not out to guide MI to 195/4. DC’s chase faltered from the outset as their top order collapsed inside the powerplay.
From there, despite Chinelle Henry’s 56, the pursuit of 195 became increasingly out of reach as DC were bowled out for 149 in 19 overs, as MI opened their account in an emphatic fashion. For MI, Amelia Kerr and Nicola Carey bowled decisive spells to pick three-fers each.
