The 13th Women’s Premier League (WPL) match will be played on Tuesday, 20 January, 2026, at BCA Stadium, Kotambi, Vadodara. The match will start at 7:30 PM, with the Delhi Capitals Women squaring off against the Mumbai Indians Women. Delhi are worst off sitting at the bottom, while Mumbai is second, putting prime importance to both teams.

 

Delhi Capitals Women (DC-W)

 

Delhi Capitals Women is having a horrible season, winning only one game out of four they played. Batting and bowling have failed against them, costing them more than one close encounter this season. In the last match, DC Women put up 166 runs against RCB Women in what looked like a fair score on the night; however, the chase was not restricted by the bowlers, and they lost by 8 wickets. On the batting front, Shafali Verma and Lucy Hamilton's performances were stiffly behind the rest in terms of support, whereas a lack of discipline in the bowling department saw them leak runs. The pressure is mounting on DC Women; to reclaim their pride and stay alive in the competition, they need a strong comeback.

 

Mumbai Indians Women (MI-W)

 

Mumbai Indians Women have been a stronger position so far, having played five matches and won two. Nonetheless, they lost back-to-back games against UP Warriorz Women before trying to regain momentum. In the last match, MI Women ended their innings on 165/6 during the chase of 188. Amelia Kerr (49*) and Amanjot Kaur (41) played good hands to keep the chase alive, but the team still fell short by 22 runs, though. MI Women hope to bounce back and maintain the position in the table.
