Delhi: Delhi Capitals (DC) and Mumbai Indians (MI) are face to face in the 13th match of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026. This match is considered very important for both the teams because on one hand Delhi is looking for a comeback and on the other hand Mumbai would like to maintain its strong position.

At the same time, Mumbai Indians women’s team has entered the field with full confidence. The team is known for playing better under pressure and would like to strengthen its hold in this match too. Today’s match is not just a battle of two points but can also be a match that decides the direction of the season.

Statements from both captains: DCW vs MIW
Jemimah Rodrigues (DC):
We will bowl first. The ball slides more under the lights, so we took this decision. Bowling will benefit from the arrival of dew. It would be better for the batsmen to play the ball straight and in line. It is important for bowlers to pay attention to the stumps. We just decided to keep things simple. We have to win, but right now we are focusing on the process, what we have to do and how to do it. Results will come automatically.
There has been a change in the team. Young player Diya Yadav has joined the team. She is only 16 years old, but can hit the ball well.
Harmanpreet Kaur (MI):
We wanted to bowl first. We had a lot of good sessions in the last few days. We sat down and had a good discussion with the team. Hopefully we will play our best cricket today because we were not at our level in the last two matches.
There have been four changes in the team. New wicketkeeper Rahila has joined the team. Kamalini is out of the tournament due to injury. Vaishnavi Sharma is back, who is a left-arm spinner and is making her debut today. Apart from this, Ismail has also returned to the team. Poonam is also back in the team. Looking at the circumstances, we think that these changes will help us.
