Delhi Capitals' swashbuckling opener Shafali Verma is hoping to see plenty of spectators, especially girls, turn up for their WPL match against UP Warriorz and "feel inspired" on the International Women's Day here on Friday. With four wins and a loss in five matches so far, Delhi Capitals are currently at the top of the points table, and they will look to extend their winning run. Speaking about playing the match on the occasion of International Women's Day, Shafali said, "I think the last time I played a game on International Women's Day was during the T20 World Cup final in Australia. "The stadium was packed, and I hope tomorrow as well, many people turn up, especially girls. We will aim to play well and women feel inspired by us and excel in their respective fields."

The crowd cheered, asked for dance moves in WPL match: Jemimah Rodrigues

The Delhi crowd was not content with Jemimah Rodrigues' cuts, pulls and drives, and her 33-ball 69-run knock. The heads totting the stands at Arun Jaitley Stadium were also asking her "for dance moves". Thanks to fifties from Jemimah and Meg Lanning, Delhi Capitals posted a handsome 192/4 in their Women's Premier League match against Mumbai Indians here on Tuesday night. The total proved to be enough as DC won by 29 runs in their first home game. "I loved the atmosphere. Finally, we get to play on our home ground because we played in Mumbai (last season), in Bengaluru earlier, but now finally in Delhi," the 23-year-old batter said in a press release from the franchise. "The crowd always gets me going, they keep me pumped up and I really take energy from them. Every time I was going to the boundary they were cheering, they were asking for dance moves. It was a nice experience out there," she added. Besides her big hits, Jemimah has also earned online fame for the short dance videos

Shabnim Ismail bowls fastest delivery in women's cricket, breaches 130kph

South African pacer Shabnim Ismail created history by bowling the fastest delivery ever recorded in women's cricket, breaching the 130kph barrier for the first time since the introduction of speed guns. Playing for Mumbai Indians in their Women's Premier League (WPL) match against Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Ismail shattered the record by clocking 132.1km/h (82.08mph), her thunderbolt smashing into the pad of former Australia captain Meg Lanning. It was the second ball of the third over of the match on Tuesday, prompting the MI players to appeal in unison, only to be turned down by the umpire. Ismail, who appeared for South Africa in all eight previous ICC Women's T20 World Cups and only retired from international cricket following last year's tournament on home soil, had previously been clocked as bowling at 128km/h (79.54mph) against the West Indies in 2016 and at 127km/h twice during the most recent edition of the Women's World Cup in 2022.
