Mumbai Indians scored a comprehensive 50-run victory over Delhi Capitals to get on the board in Saturday's double-header at the DY Patil Stadium after suffering a crushing defeat in the WPL 2026 opener. Nat Sciver-Brunt (70 off 46) and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur (74* off 42) led the batting charge to a competitive 195 for 4 before the Capitals were bowled out for just 145 in response, despite some late fireworks from Chinelle Henry. Mumbai had to overcome early difficulties once more when Jemimah Rodrigues, Delhi's new captain, asked them to bat first. Lizelle Lee stunned everyone with a one-handed dive from behind the stumps, giving Amelia Kerr the golden duck. G Kamilini was sent packing by the stumper, and fellow DC debutant Nandini Sharma got her first wicket in the WPL. Prior to joining hands with the captain, Sciver-Brunt scored the majority of the runs in that 49-run stand, advancing to a quick 20-ball 32. Mumbai increased their scoring by adding 66 runs for the fourth wicket in 47 deliveries thanks to the senior-most pair. In her 42-ball top-scoring effort, Harmanpreet was particularly aggressive with the pacers. Although Sciver-Brunt scored a half-century off 32 balls, Harmanpreet broke a brief lull with a six and a four off Chinelle Henry to propel MI past the 100-run mark by the 13th over. After hitting three sixes off Minnu Mani in the subsequent over, Sciver-Brunt fell to Shree Charani, leaving her skipper to finish the job. Harmanpreet found company in Nicola Carey, who kept finding the boundaries at regular intervals in her 12-ball cameo worth 21 while the captain started dealing in sixes. She went after Charani in the final over with four boundaries in a row to help MI post a formidable total for the conditions, raising her 34-ball half-century with one off Minnu. Shafali Verma's early struggles ensured that Delhi's pursuit never took off. Lee could only contribute a run-a-ball 10 in his WPL debut. Like in the first game, Carey lent the opposiiton a double blow - getting rid of Verma and Laura Wolvaardt in the same over. The first time this has happened, Delhi lost their fourth wicket during the PowerPlay, and skipper Rodrigues was hit by Kamilini's one-handed stunner. Henry remained, but DC were behind schedule. She added 40 runs for the sixth wicket with Niki Prasad (12 off 18) and 20-run partnerships with Minnu and Sneh Rana (11 off 11), but the required run rate quickly got out of hand. Kerr joined the attack late, but he was able to put an end to DC's resistance by taking important wickets of Niki and Minnu before killing Henry, which was the final blow to the new DC. With figures of 3 for 24, Kerr was the best bowler, and Carey also picked a three-for to knock Delhi out for 145 in the 19th over, despite being a little pricey.
