DY Patil Sports Academy: Shafali Verma displayed a batting masterclass, scoring 62 off 41 deliveries, as Lucy Hamilton and Sneh Rana came up with handy contributions to lift Delhi Capitals to a fighting total of 166 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the 11th match of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026, here at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy.

She took the fight to the RCB bowlers and put together a crucial 59-run partnership for the fifth wicket with Niki Prasad, helping to stabilize the innings while keeping the runs coming. Shafali then joined Sneh Rana for an important 34-run partnership for the seventh wicket, preventing DC from losing all momentum. Along the way, Shafali reached her seventh WPL half-century, eventually scoring 62 runs off 41 balls. Lucy Hamilton provided a late boost with a quick 36 runs off just 19 balls, helping DC surpass the 150-run mark and move toward a competitive total.

I Still Can't Figure Out How Selectors Went With Inglis Ahead Of Webster In Ashes: Ponting
New Delhi: Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has questioned the Ashes selection calls, saying he is still unable to understand why Josh Inglis was preferred over Beau Webster during the series. Despite making an impressive start to his Test career, including a match-winning performance on debut during last years Border-Gavaskar Trophy finale, Webster was left out of Australias starting XI for Novembers Ashes opener in Perth, with fellow all-rounder Cameron Green taking his spot at No. 6. The 32-year-old was also sidelined for the following two Tests in Brisbane and Adelaide, with national selectors instead calling up reserve wicketkeeper Inglis, who posted scores of 23, 32 and 10 batting at No. 7. Webster finally got a chance during the New Years Ashes Test at the SCG, where he scored an unbeaten 71 and took three wickets with his part-time off spin. At the start I was surprised they went with Inglis ahead of Beau. With the selectors, I know they look very deeply into data with these things. There must have been something there; a metric and Inglis must have better numbers. But I cant figure out how they did that, to be honest, Ponting told SEN Tassie. Ponting suggested the decision was puzzling, especially given Websters form and ability to offer greater balance to the side, and felt the selectors missed an opportunity by overlooking him throughout the Ashes. I was surprised, but every time I see Beau play, he just continues to put forward a case as to why he should be in the side. Now we know an opportunity has come up at No. 5 with Usman Khawaja not there. I cant see any world in which Travis Head doesnt continue as opener, so maybe its Beaus chance to grab that No. 5 spot. Ponting suggested the decision was puzzling, especially given Websters form and ability to offer greater balance to the side, and felt the selectors missed an opportunity by overlooking him throughout the Ashes.
