The Delhi players fought it out in the middle to prevent their winning streak from being easily broken as Mumbai Indians put an end to the Delhi display in the seventh match of the current WPL. Despite the fact that Mumbai controlled the majority of the game, Delhi’s rising star Jemimah Rodrigues displayed remarkable drive as she travelled a considerable distance before leaping forward to take an exciting catch that ended Hayley Matthews’s innings.
Matthews has been the backbone of Mumbai’s batting throughout the competition, and on the majority of instances, he has been crucial to the success of Mumbai. As a result, one of the first items the adversary usually checks off their list in order to keep themselves in the hunt is getting rid of the Caribbean. When the destructive opener began to let loose on the Delhi bowlers, that is precisely what Delhi were hoping for.
The right-handed batter attempted a massive shot off right-arm off spinner Alice Capsey after a rather steady knock of 32 off 30 deliveries, but mistimed it and struck a leading edge to get it moving in the air. Rodrigues, who was positioned at long off, ran a considerable distance from his position at long off towards mid-off before diving for the ball and successfully catching it to get Matthews out. Following the outstanding acrobatic performance, a video emerged that has also gained popularity on social media.
