When You Keep Believing, Magic Happens: Captain Jemimah Hails Teams Effort As DC March Into Fourth-straight WPL Final

Captain Jemimah: Delhi Capitals captain Jemimah Rodrigues credited the teams belief, calm decision-making and a collective bowling effort after her side stormed into a fourth consecutive Womens Premier League (WPL) final with a seven-wicket win over Gujarat Giants in the Eliminator on Tuesday here at the BCA Stadium (Kotambi). This finals feels different for sure. But also I think with GG, the last two games didnt go our way. We were. Last over we needed seven runs, today we won by seven wickets. So I think when you just keep believing as a team, magic happens, Jemimah said in the post-match presentation after receiving the Player of the Match award. Delhis emphatic chase of 168 in just 15.4 overs underlined their growing authority in knockout fixtures. It was their first win over Gujarat after three straight defeats and continued a striking pattern; each of Delhis five victories this season has come while chasing. The result also ensured that Delhi became the first team to reach four consecutive WPL finals, after Meg Lanning led the team to the summit clash in the previous three editions. Jemimah revealed there was no dramatic tactical shift ahead of the must-win game, stressing simplicity over overthinking. Nothing. To be honest, nothing. Even our team meeting was very short today, she said. I think we just thought of not overthinking it or trying too hard. Just sit back, trust each other, trust yourself, go out there, play good cricket, and when you do things the right way and stay calm, things fall into place. While the chase grabbed headlines, Jemimah was quick to acknowledge the groundwork laid by her bowlers, who restricted Gujarat to 168/7 despite a resilient knock from Beth Mooney. I think a lot of credit goes to our bowlers. Kappy, Im saying this, our bowlers won us the game today, she said. But to be honest, they make me look good as a captain. You know, its easy to set a field, its easy to get the bowling changes, but youve got to still go out there and deliver. And everyones been delivering. Delhis pursuit briefly wobbled when both openers fell in the same over, but Jemimah said the team remained unfazed. Yeah, I think today was restoration for us. I would just say that, she said. And to be honest, the way Shafali and Lee, from both the ends, you know, if they bat that way, its very hard as a bowling team. Where do you bowl? So Im so glad both of them are in my team. She added that the partnership with Laura Wolvaardt was built on clarity rather than scoreboard pressure. At the same time, two wickets falling. That does build a lot of pressure, but I love the way both Wolfie and I just kept playing good, positive cricket. Didnt worry too much about the score again. We played according to the merit and stuck to our strengths. Delhis pursuit briefly wobbled when both openers fell in the same over, but Jemimah said the team remained unfazed.

WPL 2026 Eliminator: Most Balanced Giants Side Weve Had, So Many Things To Be Proud Of, Says GG Skipper Gardner After Exit

Losing Sophie Devine: Gujarat Giants captain Ashleigh Gardner admitted her side paid a heavy price for a sluggish start with the ball as Delhi Capitals cruised to a seven-wicket victory, but noted the positives from their campaign and expressed pride, stating that this is the most balanced side that theyve had, pointing to the emergence of young Indian talent such as Anushka Sharma, alongside experienced campaigners like Rajeshwari Gayakwad and Devine. Despite posting a competitive 168/7, rescued by a composed Beth Mooney and a vital middle-overs partnership with Georgia Wareham, Gujarat were quickly put on the back foot by Delhis aggressive intent in the powerplay. Lizelle Lee and Shafali Verma capitalised on anything loose, racing away to 75 runs inside the first six overs and effectively setting the tone for the chase. We felt like that was enough at halfway if we bowled well, Gardner said after the match. But when you dont start the powerplay, either taking wickets or restricting runs, it brings that team in, and obviously they took the powerplay on. Thats their ammo, and they did that brilliantly today. Gardner pointed to missed execution and an inability to apply sustained pressure as decisive factors, particularly under dew-laden conditions that made control difficult. Once the dew sets in, the ball slides on if you miss the stumps, she explained. We just missed the stumps a little bit too much tonight and gave them too many free hits early. Delhi never relinquished control after the opening stand, with Jemimah Rodrigues and Laura Wolvaardt calmly steering the chase through the middle overs. Though Wareham briefly revived Gujarats hopes with two wickets, Gardner conceded her side could not maintain that momentum for long enough. Georgia set the tone with her first over, taking those two crucial wickets, she said. But we just werent able to do that for long periods of time, which is obviously really disappointing. Earlier, Gujarats innings had been shaped by Mooneys resilience after early setbacks. Losing Sophie Devine and then slipping to 48/3 at the end of the powerplay put pressure firmly on the Giants, before the wicketkeeper-batter and Wareham stitched together a stabilising stand. Probably wasn't the most ideal start. I think Mooney did a fantastic job of kind of rescuing the innings with Georgia, Ash reflected. Despite the defeat, Gardner struck a reflective, optimistic note about the campaign as a whole, highlighting the Giants growth and balance as a team. This is probably the most balanced Giants side that weve had, she said. We've unearthed some fantastic talent. Looking at someone like Anushka Sharma, she hasn't looked out of place. 22 years old, batting 3, and what's almost like international cricket. She's, I guess, looked at home. And then you look at someone like Rajeshwari, who's come into this side and she has so much experience. And I guess talking about the Indian players, I think they're the players that almost win you these competitions. And then in saying that, someone like Sophie Devine has been fantastic throughout the whole campaign as well, the GG skipper added. Theres so much things to be proud of. For this team, obviously, we had a pretty brutal start to the WPL. We didn't win many games, so to do back-to-back, making finals two years in a row, there's certainly plenty of positives to take out of it, but plenty of learnings as well going forward, Gardner added.

Delhi Capitals March Into Fourth Straight WPL Final With Dominant Win Over Giants

WPL 2026 Eliminator: DC Cruise Past GG By Seven Wickets To Enter Fourth Straight Final

Delhi Capitals Women: Delhi Capitals Women produced a dominant all-round performance to defeat Gujarat Giants Women by seven wickets, chasing down a competitive target with ease, courtesy of a clinical batting display led by Lizelle Lee and Jemimah Rodrigues, to enter the final of the tournament for the fourth consecutive time. Asked to respond to Gujarats 168/7, Delhi wasted little time asserting control. Openers Lee and Shafali Verma set the tone with an aggressive powerplay, racing to 75 runs in the first six overs. Lee was particularly severe on anything loose, peppering the boundary with authority, while Shafali played the perfect foil with brisk support. The opening stand of 89 runs was broken in the eighth over when Lee was trapped lbw by Georgia Wareham for a fluent 43 off 24 balls, an innings studded with eight fours and a six. Shafali followed soon after for 31 off 21, but the brief double blow did little to derail Delhis momentum. Skipper Jemimah Rodrigues took charge in trademark fashion, rotating the strike smartly before unfurling a range of strokes against the spinners. Laura Wolvaardt provided calm assurance at the other end, ensuring the chase never drifted off course. Rodrigues 41 off just 23 balls, laced with four boundaries and a six, effectively sealed the contest. When she was dismissed with the team at 160/3 in the 15th over, Delhi were already within touching distance. Wolvaardt remained unbeaten on 32 off 24 deliveries, while Marizanne Kapp finished the job with a quick cameo as Delhi reached 169/3 with 26 balls to spare. Earlier, Gujarat Giants posted 168/7 after coming under pressure from disciplined bowling and sharp fielding. Their innings was anchored by wicketkeeper-batter Beth Mooney, who carried her bat for a composed 62 off 51 balls. After a cautious start and early setbacks, including the loss of Sophie Devine and a damaging double strike that left Gujarat 48/3 at the end of the powerplay, Mooney held the innings together with patience and control. A vital 61-run partnership with Wareham in the middle overs revived Gujarats hopes, and late cameos from the Victorian and Kashvee Gautam, who struck a brisk 18 off 10 balls, pushed the total into competitive territory. Chinelle Henry was the pick of Delhis bowlers with three wickets, consistently breaking partnerships and preventing Gujarat from fully accelerating.

WPL 2026: It's Just About Keeping Things Super Simple, Doing What We've Done Well, Says Voll

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru top-order batter Georgia Voll said the key to handling huge expectations around the franchise in the 2026 Women's Premier League (WPL) final will be keeping things simple, doing what has gone well for them before and not getting overwhelmed by the occasion. Smriti Mandhana-led RCB are in the WPL final for the second time after finishing as table-toppers in the league stage. The franchise won their first WPL title in 2024 after beating Delhi Capitals in the final at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. RCB awaits the winner of the Eliminator clash between DC and Gujarat Giants in Thursdays title clash at the BCA Stadium in Kotambi, Vadodara. I think obviously it's a big expectation when we see the sort of team that we're a part of and the fan base that we have at RCB is something that I've never been a part of. So, obviously there's that sort of expectation of the fans and outside. But I think within our group it's just about keeping things super simple and doing what we've done well all year and not trying to change that in terms of the final. I think if we can continue to do the small things well and not think too big a picture is what we'll be looking to do and hopefully we can bring that trophy home, Georgia told IANS in a select virtual interaction on Tuesday. The WPL has provided overseas players like Georgia a unique opportunity to share the dressing room with India's domestic players. Georgia, who has made 91 runs in five innings so far for RCB, has taken the mantle of being a researcher for best coffee shops in both Navi Mumbai and Vadodara. She revealed an amusing side to life in the RCB camp, including her ongoing campaign to get skipper Smriti Mandhana to make her a coffee. It's been pretty cool. Obviously, being in these different T20 tournaments around the world, obviously a lot of the Indian girls don't sort of venture over to the Big Bash or the Hundred. You only sort of see a couple of them. To come over here and be sort of a part of their competition and see the way that they go about things as a whole group, we've obviously spent quite a bit of time together and it's been cool to see the way that they go about things and they're pretty quiet off the field as well. I don't see a lot of them other than when they come into my room for a coffee occasionally. I'm still getting Smriti to try and make me a coffee, but that hasn't worked yet. So, hopefully I can get her to make me one by the time we leave here, she said. To come over here and be sort of a part of their competition and see the way that they go about things as a whole group, we've obviously spent quite a bit of time together and it's been cool to see the way that they go about things and they're pretty quiet off the field as well. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Obviously similar to what Georgia said. I haven't got to play much with the Indian players before. So, especially around training and stuff, it's been really nice to see how they go about things and done a lot of bowling in the nets with Radha and Shrey (Shreyanka Patil) which has been really nice just to see how they approach things and the different things that they work on. It's been nice to explore different ways to train and how they go about things. Article Source: IANS

WPL 2026 Eliminator: GG Ride On Mooneys Unbeaten 62 To Survive DC Scare And Post 168/7

The West Indies: Delhi Capitals bowlers kept the hosts in check, while wicketkeeper-batter Beth Mooneys sluggish yet resilient knock and Gerogia Wareham and Kashvee Gautams efforts with the willow helped the Gujarat Giants get to a competitive total of 168/7 when the two sides squared off in the crucial and penultimate contest of the Womens Premier League 2026, the Eliminator, here at the BCA Stadium (Kotambi). Marizanne Kapp conceded six runs in the opening over as Sophie Devine edged a four over the slip cordon, with Gujarat moving to 6/0 after a cautious start. However, Chinelle Henry struck early for Delhi, removing Devine for six as she edged an outswinger to Lizelle Lee at slip, leaving Gujarat one down in the second over. No. 3 batter Anushka Sharma and Mooney then showed tremendous confidence against Henry and Kapp and scored 29 runs off the next three overs, but Nandni Sharmas double strike in the final over of the powerplay led to Anushka and skipper Ashleigh Gardners exit off consecutive deliveries as GG reached 48/3 in the first six overs. DC bowlers kept the opposition batters in check and picked up wickets at regular intervals. While Mooney tried to score runs from one end, she kept losing partners on the other. She found an able pair in Georgia Wareham as the duo stitched a slow but valuable 61-run stand in the middle-overs before Henry broke the partnership. The West Indies all-rounder took wickets on the second and fourth balls of the 17th over, dismissing Wareham, as Bharti Fulmali headed back to the pavilion. GG gained some relief during the death overs because the DC bowlers struggled significantly. Mooneys undefeated 62 off 51 balls, which she played throughout the entire innings, coupled with Kashvee Gautams quick 18 off 10 balls, helped the home team reach a total of 168/7 in 20 overs. DC bowlers kept the opposition batters in check and picked up wickets at regular intervals. While Mooney tried to score runs from one end, she kept losing partners on the other.

WPL: Own That Position And Try To Do A Job For The Group, Says Sophie Devine On favourite Playing Role

Danny Wyatt Hodge: New Zealand and Gujarat Giants all-rounder Sophie Devine believes that experience alone does not define a players value in a team, stressing instead the importance of clarity and consistency of role in building confidence Devine said this clarity has helped her perform in the ongoing Womens Premier League (WPL), where she has been able to understand her role and contribute effectively to the side. Asked how she views her role in the team, Devine highlighted the advantage of being a versatile cricketer. Depends on the day. That's a great thing about having different skills, as you get two cracks at it during a game. Its obviously been a great tournament for us so far, but the job's certainly not done yet, the all-rounder told broadcasters ahead of the Eliminator clash between Delhi Capitals and GG on Tuesday. Reflecting on what has been one of her most consistent seasons in recent years, Devine said she does not necessarily have a favourite role, but values the stability she has found this season. Yeah, I don't know, I guess it's funny to look back at the start of my career, and I was a bowler to start, so it's always nice to, I guess, to go back to my roots and yeah to do a real job. I think I said previously that I think any player it doesn't matter how experienced you are but when you get consistency and clarity of role you grow confidence in that and I think that's just been an example of this probably this tournament is knowing exactly where I fit in this group and being able to own that position and really just try and do a job for the group. Which probably adds to the importance of your season because you haven't had consistency in your role because you've sort of gone from middle order to opening, depending on if Danny Wyatt Hodge was in the team or not, she said. The former New Zealand skipper also spoke about the challenges of frequently switching batting positions and how experience has helped her manage those transitions. Yeah it is and I certainly think if it was 10 years ago I think I probably would have struggled with it a lot more but I guess I've hit the luxury is maybe not the right word but of having batted 1-11 being able to make that shift really quickly and I think with my game my game plan is it doesn't actually change too much. Its probably more about what happens in the out-of-field, do you know what I mean? It's two fielders out or it's four fielders out, so for me, not much changes in that sense, and I think that's a real positive is that I don't have to change too much, it's probably more so how the opposition goes about bowling to me, she stated. The former New Zealand skipper also spoke about the challenges of frequently switching batting positions and how experience has helped her manage those transitions. Also Read: Live Cricket Score You look at successful teams not just here but around the world the ones that have got depth and have trust and faith that if you know the top four or five don't score runs your number six, seven, eight, nine, ten can also chip in with really valuable runs so having that confidence and freedom I think really has helped this group and I think as well we've probably adapted nicely to the conditions here in Baroda, Devine concluded.

WPL 2026 Eliminator: DC Ask GG To Bat As Both Teams Bank On Unchanged XI

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Delhi Capitals won the toss and elected to bowl first against Gujarat Giants in the crucial Eliminator tie of the Womens Premier League (WPL) 2026 at the BCA Stadium (Kotambi). With both sides heading into the contest with an unchanged XI from their previous game, the winner will go on to face Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the final on Thursday. The fourth edition of the Womens Premier League has been characterised by narrow margins, making dominant wins uncommon. Delhi Capitals have experienced this pressure firsthand, failing twice in run chases against Gujarat Giants in the league stage and struggling to finish close games under the steady leadership of Sophie Devine. Those results shaped contrasting routes to the eliminator. Gujarat Giants finished second on the table, sealing their spot with an impressive win over defending champions Mumbai Indians on the final league day. Delhi, in contrast, had to wait until the very end to confirm qualification. Yet, as the Eliminator arrives, past journeys matter little. Both teams arrive with strong recent form at the venue, winning three of their last four matches and having settled into their line-ups after brief tactical adjustments. The main difference is in depth: Delhi Capitals have received match-winning contributions from many players, whereas Gujarat Giants rely heavily on a few key individuals. Whether this reliance costs them, or Devine once again steps up to lead the Giants to their first final, promises an exciting knockout clash. Winning the toss, DC skipper Jemimah Rodrigues said, It looks like a fresh surface. Any target feels chaseable, and with the dew coming in, the pitch should get a little better under lights. Just control the controllables is the message to the team. Today is a new game, if any game matters the most it is tonight. So want to win. Meanwhile, GG captain Ashleigh Gardner said, We were going to bat and just had a feeling they might want to bowl and it worked out well. We want to be aggressive with the bat and take it on the powerplay. Nothing changes for us tonight. Looks very similar to the last couple of wickets. Assess conditions quickly and adapt on the run.

UHA's Pentad Pavilion Selected for Exhibition at India Art Fair 2026

Pentad Paviliona parliament and playground in onemoves this week to India Art Fair 2026 in New Delhi after a star turn at ADFF:STIR Mumbai. The pavilion, designed by international architecture and design firm UHA , was one of ten curated from 75 entries by Aric Chen, Director of the Zaha Hadid Foundation, with a distinguished jury panel consisting of Hans Ulrich Obrist, Lesley Lokko OBE, Raj Rewal, Ma Yansong, and Martha Thorne, and is the only one to make its way to India Art Fair. UHA's Pentad Pavillion on exhibition last month at ADFF:STIR in Mumbai,The Pavilion will be exhibited this week at India Art Fair in Delhi With the pavilion, we wanted to reimagine the spaces where decisions are made by bringing together five global modes of assembly: circular, semicircular, horseshoe, opposing benches and classroom , said Joseph R. Goodwin, UHAs design lead on the project . Pentad is about observation, participation, and belonging - and after seeing all the ways visitors interacted at ADFF:STIR Mumbai last month, we're excited to see continued provocation through play in its second home . The competition for ADFF:STIR asked how architecture can frame new social relations, exploring the ties between space, movement and event. Pentad, a two level structure which is 41 square meters and stands 6.4 meters high, takes inspiration from the new Indian parliament, one of almost 100 UN member states to have explored post-colonial identity through a rebalancing of colour, materiality, symbolism, and tradition. The pavilion and the parliament will stand a mere ten kilometres apart for the duration of India Art Fair, bridging the gap between play and politics. The pavilion design explores the effect of combining the five modes of plenary spaces, allowing visitors the opportunity to explore, engage, and experiment within these modes while they are wrapped, overlapped, or stacked. Pentad mirrors a bicameral approach while being designed to be reconfigurable. Seating, shading, and the play of proximity and transparency dissolve the binary nature of the chambers, becoming multi-cameral and supporting all five modes of meeting. A hidden system of talk tubes is woven through the structure, enabling visitors to listen and participate, eavesdrop and interrupt. Antechambers become crawl spaces, slides can be fitted to disrupt the rowed seating, and lower chamber swing hooks can be used to hang a new form of judicial seating. The brief for the initial pavilion design encouraged the team to think beyond a monofunctional space, actively considering its afterlife. Pentad is now in the first phase of that afterlife, making its journey to Delhi after its successful debut in the Jaquar Pavilion Park at ADFF:STIR 2026, in Mumbai. Pentad is supported by STIR for its exhibition at India Art Fair. Beyond the meaning that the pavilion itself embodies, one important factor for its satisfactory realisation was its public use. Pentad hosted numerous workshops and talks as a part of ADFF:STIR Mumbais public programme. Halfway across the country, in New Delhi, Pentad retains its essence by lending itself to public discourse at the India Art Fair. It will offer a space for all its visitors to explore their curiosities. About UHA UHA designs and delivers projects that vary in context, function, and scale, encompassing architecture, masterplanning, landscaping, environmental services and interior design. From concept design to turnkey challenges, we have projects on-site from London to Taipei, covering boutique residential towers and luxury villas to high-tech workspaces and educational institutions.

ET Money Becomes India's First Platform to Offer Intelligence-Led Access to Specialized Investment Funds

ET Money , Indias leading full-stack wealth platform and part of the 360 ONE WAM group, today announced the launch of Specialized Investment Funds (SIFs). This makes ET Money, Indias first investment platform to offer intelligence-led access to this newly introduced category of Mutual Funds. Indias first platform to offer intelligence-led access to Specialized Investment Funds (SIFs) With this launch, ET Money extends its long-standing mission of simplifying long-term investing by expanding beyond Mutual Funds. It reinforces their effort to offer access to more advanced, professionally managed investment strategies, while ensuring product suitability, decision clarity and investment confidence. Why SIFs are for you Specialized Investment Funds were introduced by SEBI to address a growing gap in the Indian investment landscape. It sits between traditional Mutual Funds and Portfolio Management Services (PMS). As Indian investors mature, many seek strategies that go beyond simple equity or hybrid allocations. They want: Better downside management Consistent outcomes across market cycles Greater flexibility in deploying larger capital allocations SIFs are designed with an aim to fill this gap by allowing fund managers to use advanced strategies, including derivatives, long-short positioning, and tactical hedging. All of this within the regulated, tax-efficient Mutual Fund structure. The Intelligence Layer: Making SIFs Investable While SIFs unlock powerful possibilities, they are also inherently more complex than traditional Mutual Funds. Funds within the same category can have very different objectives, risk profiles, and outcomes, making evaluation difficult for individual investors. This is where ET Moneys intelligence-led approach comes in. Rather than presenting SIFs as a list of products, ET Money decodes them based on their intended role in an investors portfolio: Stable, tax-efficient return strategies Consistent return strategies with controlled risk Equity-like growth with lower volatility By translating technical fund structures into clear use cases and expected outcomes, ET Money enables investors to choose SIFs based on purpose, risk appetite, and investment horizon instead of jargon. ET Money - A Home for SIF and Big Investments For years, ET Money has been a preferred platform for long-term retail investing. With SIFs requiring a Rs. 10 lakh minimum investment, the platform now naturally extends into serving investors larger capital allocations. As our investors wealth grows, their needs evolve beyond traditional Mutual Funds, said Mukesh Kalra, Founder & CEO, ET Money . SIFs represent the next step for affluent Indian investors who want a better balance of returns and risk management. But access alone isnt enough. What investors really need is clarity. By adding a strong intelligence layer on top of SIFs and decoding their purpose in ones portfolio, we are helping investors deploy larger sums with confidence and precision. Were not just offering a new product. Were providing a clearer roadmap for long-term wealth. Flexible Access, Investors Choice All SIFs available on ET Money can be accessed through the investors preferred engagement model. Investors may choose between: Advisory-based access Distribution-based access This ensures flexibility, transparency, and alignment with individual preferences. About ET Money ET Money, a 360 ONE company, is Indias leading full-stack wealth platform, helping Indians invest with clarity and confidence. It brings the most important, retail-friendly investment products together in one place. From mutual funds and SIFs to fixed deposits, bonds, insurance and pension solutions, ET Money curates investment-worthy choices and makes them accessible through seamless, paperless digital journeys. The platform leverages technology and thoughtful design to enhance decision-making with research-driven insights, personalised recommendations and active portfolio supervision. Its suite of investment intelligence includes the ET Money Fund Report Card, Fund Verdicts, Portfolio Health Check and Multi-Asset Allocation Strategies. ET Money envisions a future where every Indian investor gets unmatched support across every stage of their wealth-building journey enabling disciplined, long-term investing with exceptional ease, clarity, and confidence. Disclaimers Investments in Specialized Investment Fund involve relatively higher risk, including potential loss of capital, liquidity risk and market volatility.
