In the final match between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals, Natalie Sciver-Brunt was the standout performer with a spectacular half-century. Scoring an impressive 60 runs off just 55 balls, she hit seven fours and played an unbeaten knock that played a crucial role in Mumbai Indian’s victory over Delhi Capitals. Her exceptional performance in the final was a key factor in her team’s success in the WPL 2023 tournament.
In the WPL 2023 final, Delhi Capitals captain Meg Lanning won the toss and chose to bat first. However, her team collapsed to 79/9 in just 16 overs, leaving them in a precarious position. The 10th wicket pair of Shikha Pandey and Radha Yadav managed to add 52 runs, helping DC reach a total of 131 runs.
In response, Mumbai Indians lost two early wickets, but the partnership between Harmanpreet Kaur and Natalie Sciver-Brunt of 72 runs revived their hopes of victory. After Kaur’s dismissal, Sciver-Brunt’s quick boundaries and a cameo of 14 runs by Amelia Kerr guided Mumbai Indians to a win in just 19.3 overs. This performance helped Mumbai Indians to clinch the trophy in the inaugural edition of the Women’s Premier League.
