WPL 2026: It Was Really Nice To Have An Impact With Both Bat And Ball, Says Wareham
Georgia Wareham: Leg-spin bowling all-rounder Georgia Wareham, who struck an unbeaten 44 and later picked two wickets in Gujarat Giants sealing an 11-run win over Mumbai Indians in a decisive 2026 WPL clash, said she felt really nice to have an impact with both bat and ball. Georgia was adjudged Player of the Match for her all-round contributions in helping GG break the MI hoodoo. It was really nice to have an impact today with both bat and ball. I probably let myself down a little in both aspects during the first part of the season. So to contribute to a win tonight, Im really happy with that, she said in the post-match presentation ceremony. Asked on how she assesses the conditions, Georgia said, I think what weve seen is that giving yourself a few balls to get going has been really important. Just allowing yourself that time to settle in. Thats what I tried to do today - give myself a few extra balls, get used to the pace, and then build from there. I think thats been the trend across games here at Vadodara. On how much her batting does help her bowling, Georgia said, I think batting definitely helps. Having a good understanding of how the conditions are playing makes a big difference. Weve been pretty good batting first and then defending with the ball, so by the time I get the ball after the powerplay, Ive got a fairly clear idea of what to expect. That said, our plans dont change too much - we try to hit the stumps as much as possible and keep all modes of dismissal in play. Veteran seam-bowling all-rounder Sophie Devine, who also picked two wickets and played a key role in the field, praised the teams collective effort. I thought we were probably a few runs short on the board, but the way Ash (Gardner) and Wolfie (Wareham) batted to get us to that score was fantastic. After that, it was up to the bowlers, and I thought the way we fielded today was excellent. We demanded a lot from our fielders and knew that could be the difference, and I thought we were really good. To hold our nerve against a Mumbai side - and especially when Harman is hitting the ball like that - full credit to the team. Asked if the first 10 overs of their bowling set up GGs win, Sophie said, Especially on this wicket, which was a bit tougher, taking early wickets, particularly in the powerplay and the first 10 overs, is always crucial. We know that no matter where you play, those early breakthroughs help set the game up. Getting rid of players like Nat and Hayley, who can cause serious damage, was a big help. That said, when Harman gets on a roll, it sometimes feels like no total is big enough. But the first 10 overs were outstanding, and to maintain that intensity till the end and just sneak home was really nice. Quizzed if the decision to bat first paid off, Sophie said, Im not entirely sure what the difference is, because its the same lineup. I think weve just had really good success batting first. I know the trend has been ridiculous - something like 40 tosses in a row where teams chose to bowl first. But on a wicket we thought would tire, having first use of it helped. We back ourselves batting first. That said, were also comfortable chasing. Ash is a pretty hopeless tosser, so it doesnt really matter what we want - we just get told what to do anyway. GG will play the Eliminator on Tuesday and Sophie said how do they will approach the break time. Look, Ill probably see you (Charles Dagnall) and Marto (Katey Martin) at the golf course tomorrow. Im having a buzz. But jokes aside, its really important that we take a couple of days off. But on a wicket we thought would tire, having first use of it helped. We back ourselves batting first. That said, were also comfortable chasing. Ash is a pretty hopeless tosser, so it doesnt really matter what we want - we just get told what to do anyway. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Well enjoy tonight and celebrate the win, but over the next few days well start building again towards the eliminator on Tuesday, staying consistent with how we train and prepare, she concluded.

WPL 2026: To Be Going Into The Playoffs With This Group Of Players Is Really Pleasing, Says Gardner
Skipper Ashleigh Gardner: Gujarat Giants finally broke their eight-match losing streak against Mumbai Indians by registering their first-ever win over the defending champions to book their spot in 2026 WPL playoffs. Skipper Ashleigh Gardner said she was pretty pleased to enter the playoffs with the current bunch of players. Obviously really happy with that performance. We knew this game was almost like a quarterfinal to make the playoffs, so there was a lot riding on it. There were plenty of positives to take. Like you said, the stats told one story, but we knew today was a new game. Wed played some really good cricket against them earlier and just couldnt get over the line. We believed what we were doing would work - we just needed to sustain it for longer. To be going into the playoffs with this group of players is really pleasing, said Gardner in the post-match presentation ceremony. Explaining the decision to bat first, Ashleigh said, I think it was a bit of both. Weve won all our games batting first, so theres confidence in that. If you look at our batting lineup, we want to take the game on in the powerplay and really set things up early, knowing weve got firepower through the middle and late order. If we can maximise those phases, it puts us in a strong position. I still think we couldve pushed the total a bit more, if Im being critical. But the bowlers did a fantastic job - taking wickets in clumps really stalls the run rate. With Kaur out there at the end, we all know how damaging she can be, so were pleased to have got the win, she said. Ashleigh also praised her bowling unit and singled out Georgia Warehams contribution. A bit of both. We saw that variation was key - the spinners played a big role, especially when the pace was taken off. Early on, the ball was gripping and turning, but once the dew sets in, it tends to skid on. We always talk about keeping the stumps in play for as long as possible. It sounds cliche, but on a black-soil wicket like this, the ball can shoot through and stay low. You want all modes of dismissal in play rather than bowling wide and letting batters settle. So for us, it was about keeping the plan really simple and executing it well. We know the world-class player Georgia is. Weve seen it in the Big Bash back home, where she led from the front for the Renegades with both bat and ball. Ive played a lot of cricket with her for Australia, so we know her capabilities. Its about giving her the best opportunity to play the role we want her to play - coming in through the middle, taking the game away from the bowlers. And shes one of the best leg-spinners in the world, so giving her the freedom to attack and take wickets in that middle phase was key. She did that brilliantly today, she elaborated. Mumbai skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, who fought valiantly with an unbeaten 82, rued the lack of support from the other end. For the first six overs, we werent able to execute our batting plans. Unfortunately, we lost an early wicket and couldnt score enough runs. We were hoping to build two solid partnerships, but sadly today we didnt have any impactful ones, she said. Reflecting on her mindset during the chase, Harmanpreet stated, I kept telling myself that I had to keep batting. At the other end, I was definitely looking for support, but unfortunately today no one was able to provide that. These things happen in games where theres a lot of pressure. Sometimes the team isnt able to execute the plans. Overall though, it was a good game. On MIs fielding lapses, Harmanpreet admitted, Yes, while fielding we did miss a few chances. I think we gave away around 16-17 extra runs, and that cost us. Still, we have a very good batting side. If there had been even one partnership with me, I think it could have changed the scenario. We tried our level best, but unfortunately we couldnt win the game. Reflecting on her mindset during the chase, Harmanpreet stated, I kept telling myself that I had to keep batting. At the other end, I was definitely looking for support, but unfortunately today no one was able to provide that. These things happen in games where theres a lot of pressure.

Yes, I like to focus on things that are in my control. If things go our way, well be very happy. The good thing is that the tournament is still on. Lets see what happens tomorrow. Today was something we wanted to focus on more, but unfortunately we couldnt do what we had planned. Article Source: IANS

Sajana was next to fall miscuing to mid-off against Kashvee Gautam, before Nat pulled straight to mid-wicket off Sophie. Harmanpreet walked in under pressure and immediately looked assured by taking boundaries off Georgia and Rajeshwari Gayakwad. Amelia Kerr provided support by cutting and pulling to get her boundaries. But Georgia broke the 45-run stand in the 12th over when Amelia went for a cut, but was smartly caught by Beth Mooney behind the stumps. Harmanpreet, however, continued to anchor the chase slog-sweeping and driving her way, before sweeping Rajeshwari for six to bring up her 11th WPL fifty and sixth against GG.

After both departed in quick succession, Ashleigh and Georgia rebuilt with a composed 71-run stand off 43 balls. Though Ashleigh fell four runs short of a half-century after being stumped off Amelia Kerr, MIs standout bowler with 2-26, Georgia landed some important boundaries to take GG past 165-run mark, as 61 runs came off the last five overs.

WPL 2026: We Still Havent Played Our Best Game Of Cricket Yet, Says GGs Wareham
Gujarat Giants: Gujarat Giants leg-spin bowling all-rounder Georgia Wareham said her side still has room for improvement despite strong recent performances in the 2026 Womens Premier League (WPL), stressing that both batting and bowling units are yet to deliver their best game. To be honest, all facets, I think. Weve started really well in the powerplay with the bat over the last couple of games. Sophie (Devine) has been unbelievable at the top for us. We probably just havent quite finished our innings with the bat in hand. Its been a little bit similar with the ball as well, weve let a few things slip towards the back end of the innings. But honestly, probably a little bit everywhere. We still havent played our best game of cricket yet. It probably gives us a little bit of freedom with the bat, not having a total in mind. It leaves all possibilities open, and weve defended quite well with the ball, Georgia told broadcasters ahead of the clash against Mumbai Indians at the BCA Stadium. The winner of Fridays clash will seal their spot in the playoffs, while the loser would be forced to wait till the result of Delhi Capitals-UP Warriorz clash to know their future progress in the competition. Georgia also revealed the new nickname for Sophie, who has been a clutch death bowler for GG as seen from her stopping Delhi Capitals twice from completing a chase in the final over. Weve seen how well Sophies been bowling, especially in the last couple of overs against DC - they were incredibly clutch from her. But I think weve done quite well as a bowling unit, winning those tight moments when defending. The winner of Fridays clash will seal their spot in the playoffs, while the loser would be forced to wait till the result of Delhi Capitals-UP Warriorz clash to know their future progress in the competition. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Asked what would be the key for her to excel in Vadodara, Georgia said, I think its been pretty well documented, just hitting the stumps as much as you possibly can. Especially with the variable bounce out here and the potential for spin. Most of the dismissals have been bowled or LBW, and the lower strike rates come when were hitting the stumps. So as bowlers, thats what weve got to try and do. Article Source: IANS

The winner of Fridays clash will seal their spot in the playoffs. Second-placed Gujarat Giants are yet to beat third-ranked Mumbai Indians in the WPL so far. We just have to look at the games that weve won. Weve always set a really good marker early on in our innings. Ultimately, were basically playing a quarterfinal here, so we know we have to do both skills really well. But I think we can set the game up with the bat in hand and then hopefully try and defend it with the ball. The past is the past, and we just need to focus on what the present looks like. I know when we play really good cricket, we win games of cricket. We just have to reflect on the last game we played against these guys. We put on 190 and obviously werent able to defend it, but there are so many positives we can take out of that game, and also positives from this season. The stats speak for themselves, but I think we have a great opportunity tonight to try and change that, said GG skipper Ashleigh Gardner. Mumbai Indians captain Harmanpreet Kaur said she was wishing to bowl first. We wanted to bowl, so Im glad weve got that opportunity because as a team thats what we all decided. Its a great opportunity for us to start with a good powerplay. If were able to get a few wickets, that will be a great win for us. I feel every match is a new match. Every day is a new day.

‘Nomads: Ride as One, Ride the Legacy’, on its official website. The new page is designed to take riders closer to their local riding community (Jawa-Yezdi-BSA rider clubs) by making discovery and connecting just a click away. Jawa-Yezdi-BSA Nomads Kommuniti's The Republic Ride The Republic Day rides , Nomads for Unity in Diversity , stretched across regions and cultures, from Jammu to Tamil Nadu, Gujarat to Manipur, reflecting India’s vast geography united by a single passion for performance classics from Jawa, Yezdi and BSA. The love for these motorcycles brought together more than 2,000 riders, representing over 20 independent riding communities and more than 150 dealership-led riding groups, spanning different age groups, professions, and riding styles. In a rolling expression of continuity, seasoned riders rode alongside first-time tourers, and legacy machines flanked modern-day performance classics from brands Jawa, Yezdi and BSA. The independent communities and dealership-led riding groups will now be further unified by Classic Legends’ riding collective called ‘ Nomads ’, consolidating all the brands’ riding groups on the brands’ common website. Spanning riding communities across Jawa, Yezdi, and BSA, Nomads is designed to be their shared identity that cuts across the brands, regions, and choice of ride. Built by riders, and not by campaigns, Nomads epitomises the inclusiveness, independence, and joy of riding with one’s tribe. It made Republic Day a fitting celebration to launch the Nomads website nationally. The page will make finding the riding club closest to the rider easy and facilitate riding out with their tribe more often. Anupam Thareja, Co-founder, Classic Legends, said, “ At the heart of motorcycling lies the urge to seek out your own brand of freedom. Our performance classics are designed for that quest. But there is a deeper longing that defines motorcycling across generations, especially in these alienating times of digital overload – the urge to belong. While some days are about riding for yourself, Republic Day is about riding together. The annual rides of Jawa, Yezdi and BSA on this day unites different riders to ride out as a close-knit tribe. This year, we are celebrating them by doing more than sharing their stories. We are going live with our community page, Nomads, which lets each of our riders, old and new, find a riding community near them. The name for our riding collective recognises the urge to test boundaries and yet, belong together for a shared purpose, which could simply be the love of motorcycling. ” In addition to the Nomads page launch, rider stories from across the country were shared in real-time on the Jawa Yezdi and BSA Motorcycle social media handles throughout the day, saluting the spirit of riding with fellow Nomads. The Republic Day rides are an annual tradition for Nomads, the Jawa, Yezdi and BSA riding communities. This year marks a larger, more unified Nomads presence, deeper collaboration with independent communities, and the launch of the Nomads platform, built to sustain that momentum well beyond community rides throughout the year. About Classic Legends Pvt. Ltd. & BSA Motorcycles Classic Legends Pvt. Ltd. was founded with a vision to reintroduce iconic motorcycle brands in India & international markets. The company currently boasts an elaborate portfolio constituting Jawa, Yezdi & BSA marquee brands.

WPL: Sophie Devine Says Managing Diabetes With Cricket Is 'embedded In Routine'
Sophie Devine: Sophie Devine reaffirmed her status as one of the most reliable all-rounders in international cricket, playing a key role in Gujarat Giants victory over Delhi Capitals in the Womens Premier League (WPL) 2026 on Tuesday. Facing the challenge of defending nine runs in the final over, Devine remained composed under pressure, ending with figures of 4/37 in four overs, securing an important win and maintaining Gujarat Giants' chances for a playoff spot. While Devine's match-winning moments and heroics drew much attention, there's a quieter aspect of her journey that runs alongside her performances at the top level. For more than twenty years, the New Zealand all-rounder has managed diabetes, a condition that influences her training, routines, and approach to the game, yet she still competes at the top level. Discussing how she manages diabetes while participating in elite sports, Devine said, Diabetes has been a big part of my life for over 20 years now, so its pretty second nature to me. Sometimes I forget I even have it because its so embedded in my routine. Theres a lot of testing involved, and I use a sensor to keep track of my blood glucose levels, which people will often see me swiping. The injections dont really change whether its a game day, training day or rest day that part stays the same. She explained that match days demand extra awareness and planning, saying, The big difference on game day is making sure Im managing things well enough to be able to do my job out there. Sometimes thats straightforward and sometimes diabetes has other ideas, so its about being prepared and aware of what my body needs in those moments. Devine also emphasised the significance of her surrounding environment in guiding her through those situations, saying, Having the support of the players and support staff around me makes a huge difference. Knowing that people are aware and always there to help if I need it gives me a lot of confidence, and Im really thankful for that.

WPL 2026: It Has Been A Roller-coaster, Says Gardner On Dramatic Final-over Win
Gujarat Giants: Gujarat Giants captain Ashleigh Gardner described the dramatic final over as an emotional roller-coaster, admitting the tension ran sky-high as the contest went down to the wire in a three-run victory over Delhi Capitals at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara. Bowling the penultimate over, Gardner went for 19 runs, leaving only nine for Sophie Devine to defend. Devine held her nerve in a dramatic final over to prevent Delhi Capitals from getting nine runs, sealing a thrilling three-run win for the Gujarat Giants, completing a season double. It has been a roller coaster. We have obviously entertained the fans at the venue and on TV. My right was going to the roof through that last over, said Gardner after the match. After posting 174/9, the Gujarat team was under immense pressure as the Delhi team prepared to enter the last over of the match with nine runs to win with Sneh Rana and Niki Prasad batting together. Gujarat Giants reached 174/9 with an excellent overall effort from Beth Mooney in what was overall a really composed innings of 58 from 46 balls. Anushka Sharma contributed 39 off 25 balls during the middle overs with some lovely, elegant-looking shots, as Tanuja Kanwar's contributions of an unbeaten 21 off just 11 balls late in the innings helped the Giants to compile a competitive total. Gardner felt the pitch continued to favour batters and said the Giants total was around par. However, she conceded her side allowed Delhi Capitals back into the contest after strong bowling until the 17th over. The wickets have got progressively better. Yesterday, 200 were almost chased down, and tonight it was almost chased down as well. Between 170 and 180 was par as well. We bowled well until the 17th over, then let them back in the game. The skipper stressed the need for simplicity in execution, highlighting Sophie Devines pivotal spell and her ability to vary pace, attack the stumps, and exploit a spinner-friendly surface. For our bowlers, we need to keep it simple. We need to keep the team in play as long as possible. Finding the right lengths for change are important.

WPL 2026: Rodrigues Praises 'special' Fightback From Sneha-Prasad After Delhi's Close Loss
Jemimah Rodrigues: Delhi Capitals captain Jemimah Rodrigues praised the composure and courage shown by Sneh Rana and Niki Prasad in a tense finish, admitting it was a tough pill to swallow after falling just three runs short of the target against Gujarat Giants at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara. Sophie Devine held her nerve in a dramatic final over to defend nine runs, sealing a thrilling three-run win for the Giants, completing a season double. A spirited seventh-wicket partnership of 70 runs between Rana (29 off 15) and Prasad (47 off 24) reignited hope, but Devines mastery at the death having earlier defended seven against the same opponents ensured Gujarat Giants closed out another nervy win. Firstly, the way Sneh Rana and Niki played, I have to give it to them. It was special. Such things happen, but it would have been nice had we finished on the right side of the finishing line, said Rodrigues after the match. Rodrigues said belief never faded in the Capitals camp as long as batters were at the crease, lauding Rana and Prasad for keeping the chase alive with their fearless approach. As long as we knew our batters were in, we had the hope, and we kept believing. They kept believing and kept us in the hunt. Niki played brilliantly. I think they were the ones who kept us going. We didnt win it today, but the way they played today was brilliant. Delhi's reply got off to a good start when Shafali Verma hit a boundary off the first ball and quickly reached 26 in 2.2 overs before Rajeshwari Gayakwad removed her in the first over. Laura Wolvaardt once again failed to accelerate, scoring 24 off 23 before Gayakwad brushed her off stump, while Lizelle Lee struggled with fluency and was caught for 11 off 20 balls. Jemimah Rodrigues managed 16 off 16 balls before being bowled by Devine, and the Capitals chase faltered further as Marizanne Kapp fell for a golden duck to Gardner. Chinelle Henry added only 9 off 11 balls, leaving Delhi in trouble. Reflecting on the defeat, the skipper felt Delhi paid the price for losing wickets in clusters and conceding extra runs at the death, despite a strong effort with the ball earlier in the innings.

Beth Mooney: Beth Mooneys composed half-century and N. Shree Charanis timely strikes shaped an eventful first innings as Gujarat Giants posted a competitive 174 for 9 against Delhi Capitals in the 17th match of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026, at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara on Tuesday. Batting first for the first time, the Giants took advantage of Mooney's composure at the top of the order until the last set of the innings, when Tanuja Kanwar came out to bat. The opening pair for Gujarat was Sophie Devine and Mooney, but Devine only faced the third over before getting out to Marizanne Kapp for 13 runs. Anushka Sharma, batting at No. 3, struck a couple of boundaries within the first 20 balls of the game, showing early aggression. Mooney hit out a few singles to get used to the pitch. By the end of the Power-play, the Giants had built themselves solidly to 53 runs for the loss of one wicket. Anushka Sharma kept the Giants scoring towards the middle of the game, had one chance in the eighth over on 39 runs, and had it taken from her almost immediately as Shree Charani took her wicket in the very next delivery, swinging the momentum back to Delhi. After that, the Giants had another success when captain Ashleigh Gardner hit the ball towards deep mid-wicket only to get out for 2. Mooney remained calm through everything that happened and reached her fifty runs during her innings with just 39 deliveries, holding the entire innings together while losing wickets all around her. Charani claimed her second wicket when she bowled Georgia Wareham out for 11 in the 15th over. Delhi increased the pressure on the Giants in the next over when Chinelle Henry dismissed Bharti Fulmali for 3, leaving the Giants in a precarious position. And when she finished her innings at 58 from 46 balls in the 17th over, the Giants' chances for a strong finish seemed bleak. The Giants' poor finish continued as Delhi shut them down during the final overs of the match. Just when Gujarat appeared to be limping to the end of their innings, Tanuja Kanwar added an important contribution as a No. 9 batter, scoring 21 runs off 11 balls just before the end of the innings. Kanwar's effort raised the Giants' total to 174 runs for 9 wickets from 20 overs, giving the Delhi Capitals a competitive target despite Delhi not being at their best during the final phase of the innings.
