The fiery pace of Shabnim Ismail and spin duo Amelia Kerr and Saika Ishaque make MIW’s attack versatile. Yet, inconsistency against top teams (like their 11-run loss to RCB) remains a concern.

Head-to-Head Record (Last 5 Matches):

• February 28, 2025: DCW won by 9 wickets
• WPL 2024: DCW won by 2 wickets
• WPL 2024: DCW won by 29 runs
• WPL 2023: MIW won by 4 wickets
• WPL 2023: MIW won by 7 wickets

DCW holds a slight mental advantage, winning 3 of the last 5 encounters, including a recent 9-wicket thrashing of MIW. However, MIW’s triumphs in high-pressure moments (e.g., their 4-wicket win in 2023) prove they thrive when stakes are highest. The final could hinge on which team handles pressure better.

Prediction: Why DCW Might Edge It

While MIW’s X-factor players (Matthews, Sciver-Brunt) are match-winners, DCW’s balanced roster and recent dominance in head-to-head clashes give them a slight edge. Lanning’s tactical acumen, combined with their deep batting order and varied bowling attack, makes Delhi Capitals Women our pick to lift the trophy.

Final Verdict: Delhi Capitals Women to win by 15-20 runs or 2 wickets in a last-over thriller.
