“I
am
just
really
enjoying
my
cricket
with
DC.
I
love
batting
and
I
do
it
back
home.
I
feel
like
I
am
well
suited
to
it
and
it
just
came
off
today.
I
am
really
happy
to
get
the

it
is
always
enjoyable
to
come
up
against
my
Australian

Delhi
Capitals
vs
UP
Warriorz
Captains’ Words:

Alyssa
Healy
(UP
Warriorz
Captain)

“That
is
T20
cricket.
We
went
for
65
runs
in
the
last
5
overs
and
lost
3
wickets
in
the
powerplay.
It
was
going
to
go
one
of
two
ways,
we
would
have
killed
for
Grace
there
at
the
end
but
Ismail
did
well.
We
gave
away
a
few
too
many
in
the
field.
TM
(Tahlia
McGrath)
was
alone
with
the
bat
and
we
needed
to
give
her
support.
We
knew
we
had
to
come
out
firing,
I
was
too
loose
against
Jonno
(Jonassen)
in
that
over.
Fingers
crossed
we
can
correct
those
in
a
few
days
time
at
the
CCI.”

Meg
Lanning
(Delhi
Capitals
Captain)

“Nice
start
to
the
tournament.
Our
batting
has
been
great.
I’ve
thoroughly
enjoyed
batting
here
in
India.
So
far
so
good.
It’s
not
surprising
(200+
scores).
Great
advert
for
the
game.
Hope
it
continues.
It’s
been
very
enjoyable
so
far.
Everyone’s
very
friendly.
Great
set-up
here
at
Delhi
Capitals.”
