Delhi Capitals Women will take on RCB Women in Delhi on Sunday, March 10. This is the third home match for DC and the second for the Banglore team. Delhi won both their home matches while RCB Women lost to Gujarat Giants in their previous match.
RCB won their last home match in Bengaluru against UP Warriorz with captain Smriti Mandhana playing a match-winning knock and scoring 80. This was her second fifty-plus score in this year’s WPL. They now face a tough test from the DC women who won both of their home games.
Delhi Capitals Women, led by Meg Lanning, defeated Mumbai Indian Women and lost to UP Warriors in back-to-back home games. The team that batted first won all the matches in the Delhi match. The chase has been very difficult in Delhi and the players have recovered.
This is the biggest difference there has been in the two tournament venues so far. The difference in weather conditions has also contributed to the fact that the teams also have to adapt to the terrain conditions.
Interestingly, RCB Women are yet to win against Delhi Capitals Women in the WPL. They lost both of their games against DC last season. In the first game earlier this season, RCB could not chase 195 as they fell short by 25 runs. Mandhana scored 74 in that game in a losing cause.
