After narrowly missing out on the Womens Premier League title twice Delhi Capitals will go all out for their third time is the charm moment when they take on Mumbai Indians in their third consecutive final of the competition on Saturday at Brabourne Stadium. Delhi Capitals led by Meg Lanning are coming off a solid league stage having won five and lost three out of eight matches finishing on top to earn a direct spot in the final. Speaking about playing in a third consecutive final and about the teams campaign this season Its really irrelevant whats happened in the past even whats happened in the round games this year. They dont count for anything. Its about performing tomorrow night. Were excited about the opportunity that weve given ourselves to go out there and play our best game for the tournament. I think throughout the whole year weve had different people step up at different times. I dont feel like we rely on one or two players and that gives us a lot of confidence heading into tomorrows game. No matter whose night it is well be able to deliver and really put Mumbai under pressure she said while addressing the media in a press conference on the eve of the big game. When asked about her opening partner Shafali Vermas form in the season Lanning said Shes been excellent for us. Shes got herself some really nice starts with the bat. She looks like shes been really enjoying her cricket. A big smile on her face a lot of the time which is always a good sign. Shes a very important part of our team on and off the field. Ive really loved seeing her do well and no doubt shes got big innings in her for tomorrow night. Speaking about her experience in India playing for Delhi Capitals Lanning said Ive thoroughly enjoyed being part of the WPL and the Delhi Capitals. Its an incredible competition and its unique in a lot of ways. But what hasnt changed for me is how competitive I am and how much I want to win. So thats never left me regardless of what game Im playing or which team Im playing for. I want to contribute and make as many runs as I can to help the team win. Delhi Capitals will take on Mumbai Indians in the final of WPL 2025 on Saturday.
