WPL 2023 Final: Nat Sciver-Brunt, Issy Wong Star As Mumbai Indians Beat Delhi Capitals By 7 Wickets, Clinch Inaugural Women's Premier League Title - In Pics

England all-rounder Nat Sciver-Brunt scored an unbeaten 60 as her innings was influential in helping Mumbai Indians beat Delhi Capitals by seven wickets in a low-scoring summit clash to become champions of the inaugural Women's Premier League in Mumbai on Sunday. In front of a partisan crowd that filled the Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai Indians chased down the target of 131 with three balls to spare to lift the trophy. Opting to bat first, Delhi Capitals suffered a collapse to be reduced to 79 for 9 in 16 overs but posted a respectable total of 131 for 9, thanks to a 52-run partnership for the unbroken 10th wicket between Shikha Pandey (27 not out) and Radha Yadav (27 not out). In reply, MI lost wickets early but they eventually reached 134 for 3 in 19.3 overs, with Sciver-Brunt and captain Harmanpreet (37) playing crucial roles.
