The 12th match of Women's Premier League (WPL) 2024 will see Delhi Capitals (DC) face Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday, March 5.
Delhi and Mumbai occupy the top two spots in the WPL points table after the end of the Bengaluru leg. While the former sit atop with six points, the defending champions also have six points but are second due to having an inferior net run rate.
Led by superstar Meg Lanning, the Capitals will be desperate to come on top this time around after going down in their last meeting against MI. In the tournament opener, Mumbai successfully chased down 172 to win by four wickets, courtesy of a last-ball six from S Sajana.
However, Delhi haven't lost a game since then and will hope to continue the winning momentum in a bid to strengthen their place at the top of the points table.
Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, picked up where they left off last season. Barring the game against UP Warriorz, they have been pretty dominant. MI have played like a unit and will hope to carry on as they aim to leapfrog Delhi Capitals and occupy the top spot in the standings.
Fans are keen to know about the weather conditions as WPL shifts its base from Bengaluru to Delhi. According to Accuweather, temperatures are expected to remain below 20 degrees Celsius during the game. The humidity will also be in the lower range.
Much to the delight of fans, there is no chance of precipitation and a full 40 overs of action is expected on Tuesday night.
