DC will face Gujarat Giants in Eliminator clash
The winner will face Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the final
Delhi Capitals Women kept their season alive with a crucial five-wicket win over UP Warriorz Women in the Women’s Premier League 2026, successfully chasing 123 with eight balls to spare.
UP Warriorz were restricted to 122/8 after a shaky start that saw early wickets dent their innings. Deepti Sharma (24) and the lower order tried to steady things, but Delhi’s bowlers maintained control throughout. Marizanne Kapp was influential with the ball, while disciplined spells ensured UPW never broke free during the middle overs.
The chase had a few nervous moments, but Laura Wolvaardt’s 47 anchored the innings before captain Jemimah Rodrigues guided the finish with a composed unbeaten knock, sealing the win with a boundary.
Despite losing wickets at key intervals, Delhi’s calm approach in the latter stages ensured they crossed the line. The victory confirms Delhi’s place in the Eliminator, while UP Warriorz bow out of the playoff race after falling short in this must-win contest.
