Delhi Capitals (DC-W) are all set to host Royal Challengers Bangalore (BAN-W) in Match 17 of the ongoing Women’s Premier League 2024 (WPL 2024) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi, on Sunday, March 10.
Delhi, who are leading the six-team points table, are coming off a narrow one-run defeat against UP Warriorz. They made a dismal start in the tournament, losing the curtain-raiser against defending champions Mumbai Indians in Bengaluru.
However, the Meg Lanning-led side then staged a terrific comeback, winning the next four games. Bangalore, on the other hand, are also enjoying a successful campaign, having won three and losing as many games thus far.
