DC vs MI Live Score, WPL 2023 Final: Two in two for Issy Wong on full tosses

 

Is this a second wicket on a waist high full toss for Issy Wong? Yes it is as the third umpire has given it out. Alice Capsey could not believe that the ball came so quickly and at such height. She wanted to play it towards the leg side, but instead it became a leading edge and Jintimani Kalita at short cover leaped forward to catch it easily and give Delhi a second blow.

DC vs MI Live Score, WPL 2023 Final: Shafali Verma given out controversially

 

It looks like a waist high full toss as Wong bowls a very full ball after being hit for a four and a six and this one has also been hit by Verma, but it has gone up and has been taken at point. Right after hitting the ball, Verma looked at the leg umpire and wanted to see a no-ball call. However, the umpires went to the TV umpire and he decided that it was not a waist high no-ball and as a result, it is out and Shafali has to go back to the pavilion. Meg Lanning at the other end is shocked.

Shafali Verma said that Issy Wong, you might have picked up a hat-trick in the last game, but if you bowl good length, I will back away and give myself some room and whack you over mid-on for a six

 

Now Wong goes full and Verma goes over short third and gets a four
