Absolutely Brilliant Show: Ganguly Hails DCs Performance After They March Into Fourth Straight WPL Final

The Delhi Capitals: The Delhi Capitals clinched a seven-wicket win against the Gujarat Giants on Tuesday to seal their spot in the Womens Premier League (WPL) final for the fourth consecutive time in as many editions of the tournament, and former India captain and DC's Director of Cricket Sourav Ganguly hailed the teams efforts by dropping a comment on all-rounder Marizanne Kapps social media post. Ganguly is heavily involved with the Delhi womens team, overseeing overall strategy, squad formation, and team development, including handling the auction process for the WPL team. Kapp shared a post on her X handle on Wednesday after DC made it to the final on Tuesday, and wrote, This is special, 4 finals in 4 years! Couldnt be happier! What a team, what a franchise! So so special! Team DC, Thank you Jesus. On this, Ganguly commented, Absolutely brilliant show. Asked to respond to Gujarats 168/7, Delhi wasted little time asserting control and completed the task with ease, courtesy of a clinical batting display led by Lizelle Lee and skipper Jemimah Rodrigues. 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. On this, Ganguly commented, Absolutely brilliant show. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Rodrigues 41 off just 23 balls, laced with four boundaries and a six, effectively sealed the contest.
