Wicket to finish the innings. That's her fourth of the innings. What a performance this by DC after electing to bowl first. UP Warriorz manage 119/9 as Ecclestone falls for 6 off 6 on the last ball.

Decent recovery now. Looks like UP would have posted a formidable first innings total by the end of the innings. UPW- 96/6 after 16 overs. Shweta Sehrawat- 33* off 33, Deepti Sharma- 2* off 3.
Sixth down. First Grace Harris was dismissed by Radha Yadav before Kiran Navgire is also out caught and bowled. The ball before the wicket ball she had hit a great six and it looked like finally some silver lining to their innings, but it didn't last long with the batter getting out caught and bowled. UPW- 57/5 after 12 overs.
50 Up For UP. But it's the 12th over and they are 4 down. Not looking good, this scorecard so far

Two wickets in the same over then for Kapp! Gets rid of McGrath and Healy in the same over, which was her third on the trot. 3 wickets for 2 runs. Supeb performance from Kapp. UPW- 16/3 after 5 overs.
Minnu Mani into the attack. Concedes just 4. UPW- 15/1 after 4 overs.
End of a successful over. A wicket maiden. UPW- 11/1 after 3 overs.
Full and wide outside off and even though Dinesh throws her bat at it, she only manages to slice it up in the air where third man fielder Pandey takes a fine catch as Kapp gets a wicket. Dinesh falls for 0 off 5. UPW- 11/1 after 2.2 Overs.
Two Boundaries In The Over, both off the bat of Healy. UPW- 11/0 after 2 overs.

Hello and Welcome. The news from the centre is that the Delhi Capitals (DC) have won the toss and elected to bowl first in Bengaluru.
Background
The fourth match of Women's Premier League (WPL) 2024 will be played between UP Warriorz and Delhi Capitals at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Both the teams ended up on the wrong side of thrilling fixtures with Warriorz facing a defeat against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) while Delhi Capitals also losing to a last-ball fix against Mumbai Indians (MI) in their respective first matche.
As both teams look to get their first points on the board, this looks set to be an exciting fixture. Both teams have a bunch of out and out matchwinners in their ranks that makes them this clash an exciting one on the cards. While the toss is set to happen at 07:00 pm (IST), the match will get underway at 07:30 pm (IST).
UP Warriorz have predominantly a spin-heavy bowling attack but that doesn't mean they can be taken lightly. In addition, they have some wealth of all-round options that adds a lot of strength and solidity to the side. Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals too look a solid side on paper and almost pulled off a win against Mumbai Indians in the season opener. All in all, this could be another humdinger of a contest.
