Delhi Capitals captain Jemimah Rodrigues expressed pride in her team’s composure after a nail-biting seven-wicket victory over UP Warriorz in WPL 2026 at Navi Mumbai.
Lizelle Lee’s fluent batting and Shafali Verma’s all-round brilliance set up the chase before Laura Wolvaardt sealed the win off the final ball. Rodrigues highlighted the calm atmosphere in the dugout and praised Delhi’s disciplined bowling, led by Shafali, Marizanne Kapp and Shree Charani, which restricted UP to 154/8.
She also lauded Shafali’s confidence and impact, calling her a captain’s dream, as Delhi finally opened their account in the tournament.
