Delhi is all set to host the RCB Women vs Delhi Capitals women reverse fixture on Sunday, March 10. The match starts at 7.30 pm IST. Bangalore are yet to win against Delhi in the WPL. Delhi will host the remaining 13 games of WPL 2024 including the Eliminator and the final.

The two teams have played three matches so far and Delhi have beaten Bangalore in all three matches. Meg Lanning’s side defeated RCB Women in the two games last season and in the first high-scoring game in the Bengaluru leg as well.

Delhi Capitals Women scored 194/5 in the first game against RCB Women. Despite the best efforts of Smriti Mandhana who scored 74 in the chae, Bangalore fell short by 25 runs and ended on 169/9.

Here in Delhi, they have a stiff target of beating the Delhi Capitals in their own backyard. Delhi won their game against Mumbai Indians and lost narrowly to UP Warriorz by just one run in a tense chase. They have settled themselves well as a unit and have backed batting first over defending. However, they faltered in the chase in their previous game.

The Arun Jaitley stadium has had a considerably low bounce in the first few games to what it was in Bengaluru. The bowlers have been helped considerably by it as more balls have been directed towards the stumps. The wicket has come into the picture more often. Meanwhile, the batters have had to adjust to the low bounce.

There have been many more bowled dismissals. Batters have been dismissed trying to play across the line as well. The low bounce has been one of the major reasons why chasing and batting overall has been tougher in the second half.

Pitch Analysis

The pitch at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi has generally been a batting-friendly one on T20Is. However, in this tournament so far the considerable low bounce at the venue has made batting more difficult in the second innings.

The team batting first have been able to score runs more freely and eventually defend the targets as well. Seeing how the first few games panned out, batting first seems to be the way to go in the remaining games. There has not been a heavy impact of dew.
