NEW DELHI: Swashbuckling opener Shafali Verma sizzled with an unbeaten 28-ball 76 after Marizanne Kapp fifer as Delhi Capitals blew away Gujarat Giants by 10 wickets in Match 9 of Women’s Premier League on Saturday.
The victory was Delhi’s third of the season as they consolidated their second position in the points table.
Shafali was in beast mode as she took Gujarat bowlers to the cleaners, smacking them for 10 fours and a five sixes in a knock that came at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 271.43. Skipper Meg Lanning, who remained unbeaten on 21, had the best seat in the house to witness the Shafali carnage.
Chasing a lowly 106, such was the impact of Shafali blitz that Delhi cruised to a finish line in just 7.1 overs.
Earlier, South African pacer Marizanne Kapp wreaked havoc with the new ball, grabbing her first fifer (5/15) of the tournament.
The decision to bat first backfired heavily for skipper Sneh Rana as Kapp ripped apart Gujarat’s top order. Pacer Shikha Pandey played the supporting role to perfection, finishing with figures of 3 for 26.
