Lizelle Lee’s commanding 67, supported by Shafali Verma’s all-round impact, guided Delhi Capitals to their first win of WPL 2026 with a seven-wicket victory over UP Warriorz in Navi Mumbai.
After Delhi’s bowlers restricted UP to 154/8, Lee and Verma raced to a brisk opening stand of 94. Verma contributed 36 before Lee dominated the chase with fluent strokeplay. Despite another tense finish, Laura Wolvaardt held her nerve, sealing victory with a boundary off the final ball.
The win marked a confident turnaround for Jemimah Rodrigues’ side after early setbacks.
