Kapp and Australian all-rounder Jess Jonassen are unwell. Because of this, they are not in Delhi Capitals’ playing XI. Both players are important for the team and usually play in every match.

Delhi Capitals Chose to Bowl First

Delhi Capitals captain Meg Lanning won the toss and decided to bowl first against Mumbai Indians. She made this decision because, in the first match of the tournament, Royal Challengers Bengaluru successfully chased a big target. Also, dew might make bowling difficult in the second innings.

Mumbai Indians batted first and got all out for 164 runs in 19.1 overs. Natalie Sciver-Brunt played a great innings, scoring 80 not out. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur also played well, scoring 42 runs.

Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians are two of the best teams in WPL. Delhi Capitals finished at the top of the points table in both previous seasons but lost in the final both times. Captain Lanning said they want to follow the same strategy that has worked for them in the past.
