DC vs MI highlights, WPL 2026: Jemimah Rodrigues leads from front, Delhi Capitals beat Mumbai Indians by 7 wickets

Fifty for Jemimah Rodrigues in style. The Indian goes on the on side for a four off Nat Sciver-Brunt. A wry smile from Harmanpreet Kaur. BANGGG!!! Marizzane Kapp finishes off in style with a huge six. Delhi Capitals win by 7 wickets, their second in WPL 2026.

After the departure of Laura Wolvaardt, the onus lies with Jemimah Rodrigues. Delhi Capitals certainly need boundaries as they need 27 runs in the last three overs. Only singles and twos won't help Delhi. Looks like Sajeevan Sajana has hurt herself while fielding. The Mumbai Indians cricketer, banged into the LED hoardings while in an attempt to save a boundary. He is holding her right shoulder. The physio comes out immediately. Clever batting from Jemimah. She plays a reverse sweep for a four. Time boundary for Delhi. DC-W 141/3 (18)

100 comes up for Delhi Capitals as Jemimah Rodrigues and Laura Wolvaardt take charge. But Delhi Capitals need boundaries. Only singles and twos won't help them. While Wolvaardt is unable to find a boundary in 18 balls, Jemimah has been able to hit only two in more than 20 balls. DC-W 118/2 (16)

The run-flow for Delhi Capitals has stalled a bit after Shafali Verma got out. It has been 26 balls since the last boundary. BANGGG!!! Just as the shortage of boundaries were being discussed, Lizelle Lee pulls Amanjot Kaur for a flat six over mid-wicket. OUTTT!!!! What a time for Delhi Capitals to lose Lee. Amanjot bowls a wide ball down the leg side and is stumped by Rahila Firdous. Playing her first game in WPL, Firdous makes a lightning stumping, leaving Lee surprised. The TV umpire takes an ample amount of time to giver his verdict, much to the delight of Mumbai Indians. Lee misses fifty by four runs. DC-W 89-2 (11)

Vaishnavi Sharma, who replaced G Kamalini in the Mumbai Indians squad, has been given the responsibility. Mumbai Indians are yet to break the stand between Lizelle Lee and Shafali Verma. And Vaishnavi strikes in her first over on Mumbai Indians debut. Shafali goes across too much and exposes the middle and leg stump. The ball which kept low hits the leg stump. Shafali goes back for 29. DC-W 63/1 (7.3)

1000 runs in WPL for Shafali Verma. The Delhi Capitals opener becomes the fourth player to cross the 1000-run mark in the history of the tournament. Before Shafali, Nat Sciver-Brunt (1246), Meg Lanning (1145) and Harmanpreet Kaur (1091) had reached the feat. Meanwhile, in the chase, both Shafali and Lizelle Lee are going hand in hand. Delhi Capitals have reached fifty inside the powerplay. DC-W 57-0 (6)

Welcome back in the chase. Shafali Verma and Lizelle Lee have started well for Delhi Capitals in the chase, scoring at a rate of 10 runs per over. Both Shafali and Lee have found the boundaries and look all set to score 50 at the end of powerplay. DC-W 36/0 (4)

Two sixes from Sanskriti Gupta in the final over help Mumbai Indians to 154-5 in 20 overs. Nat Scriver-Brunt remained not out at 65.

Fifty for Nat Sciver-Brunt but she lacks support from other end. After Harmanpreet Kaur's wicket, Mumbai Indians have lost two wicket in a single over to Shree Charani. Amanjot Kaur and Nicola Carey, both depart cheaply. MI-W 134-5 (18)

OUTTTTT!!! Harmanpreet Kaur departs. The Mumbai Indians captain throws away her wicket. Harmanpreet dances down the track, lofts Shree Charani for a six, and is caught at long-on for 41 off 33 balls. MI-W 105-3 (15)

Harmanpreet Kaur shifts gears as Mumbai Indians makes a strong comeback after losing both their openers. From being at 47/2 in 9 overs, a flurry of boundaries from Harmanpreet, including three consecutive fours off Shafali Verma, takes the team to 90s in the 13th over. MI-W 91/2 (13)

Both Nat Sciver-Brunt and captain Harmanpreet Kaur have been Mumbai Indians' pillars in this edition of WPL so far and the duo are once again at their task. After the dismissals of both the openers inside the powerplay, the pair of Kaur and Sciver-Brunt are on a revival mode with a stand of nearly 30 for the third wicket. MI-W 47-2 (9)

Another opening combination and another poor start for Mumbai. Sajeevan Sajana and Hayley Matthews could manage just 21 runs before the former was dismissed by Nandini Sharma. West Indian Matthews follows suit in the next over, thanks to Marizzane Kapp. MI-W 22/2 (5)

With G Kamalini out, Rahila Firdous will keep wickets for Mumbai Indians, who have made as many as four changes. Interestingly, Mumbai Indians have left out Amelia Kerr.

Delhi Capitals captain Jemimah Rodrigues has won the toss and opted to field first. For Mumbai, Vaishnavi Sharma, who replaced injured G Kamalini, is making her debut. Shabnim Ismail is back in the playing XI too.

For Mumbai Indians, their batting order is fully dependent on Nat Sciver-Brunt and Harmanpreet Kaur. With Hayley Matthews being injury, and now G Kamalini ruled out, it has gotten worse now. The highest opening stand for MI in five games so far is 43. It will be interesting to see who will partner Amelia Kerr at the top.

Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians were dealt with a heavy blow when opener G Kamalini was ruled out for the remainder of WPL 2026 with an injury. “Mumbai Indians have named Vaishnavi Sharma as the replacement player for G Kamalini, who has been ruled out of the tournament due to injury,” MI said in a statement.

“Vaishnavi, who just earned her maiden ODI call-up to the national team, was a part of the squad that won the 2025 U-19 T20 World Cup and was also the leading wicket-taker of the tournament. Vaishnavi joins the squad for the remainder of the season,” it said.

On the other hand, Mumbai Indians have just won one game more than Delhi Capitals. In fact, baring tale-toppers RCB, Mumbai Indians, UP Warriorz and Gujarat Giants have all won two games each.

Unlike the previous seasons, Delhi Capitals under Jemimah Rodrigues is not the same. Finalists in the last three editions, Delhi Capitals have managed just one win in four matches and sit at the bottom of the table with just two points and a poor NRR of -0.856.
