On Sunday, March 03, Gujarat Giants will face Delhi Capitals in Match 10 of the Women’s Premier League 2024 (WPL 2024) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. The Capitals have four points from their opening three games whereas the Giants have lost all of their three and are at the bottom of the points table.
The Gujarat Giants have suffered numerous setbacks, losing all three of their matches convincingly. Despite possessing talented players, they have struggled to find their footing in the tournament. Their defeats have highlighted a considerable gap between them and their opponents.
In the last game against UP Warriorz, the Gujarat-based franchise lost the game by six wickets. Following their recent encounter in Match 8, the inclusion of Laura Wolvaardt and Mannat Kashyap may signify a shift in the team’s strategy. The bowling lineup of the Giants wasn’t much better either in defending the total, conceding the runs within 16 overs, despite the couple of wickets from Tanuja Kanwar.
On the other hand, Delhi Capitals suffered a last-ball defeat in their opening match of the tournament but have since won two matches very comfortably. They have shown commendable form, securing four points from their initial three fixtures.
The Delhi-based franchise won their last game against the Smriti Mandhana-led side Bangalore by 25 runs, with Marizanne Kapp being awarded the Player of the Match award for her contributions with both bat and ball. She scored 32 runs and picked up two crucial wickets. In defending the massive total, Kapp and Jess Jonassen were the difference makers for the DC, achieving a commanding win to reach the top of the league standings.

Gujarat Giants
- Laura Wolvaardt – The South Africa captain is one of the most consistent openers across all formats and comes into this match after hitting four fours in the last game. She could be one of the best players for Gujarat Giants in this match.
- Tanuja Kanwar – She is the premium bowler for the Giants so far in this tournament. The slow left-arm orthodox bowler dismissed two of the top three batters in the last game and she will be looking to make a similar impact in this match.
Delhi Capitals
- Shafali Verma – Shafali Verma could be the best batter in this match. With a brilliant half-century in the game against Bangalore, Verma is coming off an excellent outing and will be high on confidence to take charge against Gujarat bowlers. She is currently the fifth-highest run-scorer in the tournament, with 115 runs.
- Marizanne Kapp – The all-rounder from South Africa is the leading wicket-taker of her side with six wickets to her name from three outings at an average of 12 and an economy of 6.00. The right-arm pacer picked up 2/35 against RCB and will be eager to replicate her performance in the upcoming fixture.
