WPL 2024: Jemimah Rodrigues & Meg Lanning Smash Fifties As DC Make An Imposing 192/4 Against MI
In Delhi making their third 170+ score of the season, Jemimah was belligerent as she struck eight fours and three sixes at a strike rate of 209. Her shots over point were especially captivating as she used that 46-metre square boundary to perfection. She was batting on 13 off 14 at one point, before accelerating to hit 56 runs in her last 19 balls. Meg Lanning was at her solid best in making her third WPL fifty of the current season and also crossed the 500-run mark in the tournament. Shafali Verma and Alice Capsey played good cameos to contribute to Delhi reaching a commanding position at the halfway mark.
Shafali gave a blistering start to Delhi’s innings with a well-placed drive off Shabnim and chipped a lofted drive over mid-off against Saika Ishaque. After a tickle down leg off Shabnim for four, Shafali had an early life when Saika shelled a chance after running to her left at mid-on. Lanning joined the boundary-hitting party by nailing a straight-bat loft down the ground off Nat Sciver-Brunt for six and got a four by tickling past a diving backward square leg. Shafali hammered back-to-back sixes off Shabnim – lofting down the ground and carving over mid-off.
