TEAMS PREVIEW

East Delhi Riders Women Preview

East Delhi Riders Women will look to build on their first win of the Delhi Women’s Premier League 2026 when they take on North Delhi Strikers Women. The Riders produced a strong batting display in their previous game against Central Delhi Queens, posting 174/2 before restricting the Queens to 155/7 to win by 19 runs.

The Riders’ batting unit was at its best in their previous outing. Pragya Rawat led the way with an unbeaten 70 off 55 balls, while Simran Bahadur provided excellent support with an unbeaten 60 off just 36 balls. The pair added an unbeaten 115 run partnership to take East Delhi to a strong total. Vanshika Lila also made a quick 30 off 22 balls at the top.

East Delhi’s bowlers successfully defended their total, with Purva Siwach the standout performer. She picked up four wickets for 24 runs from her four overs, while Bharti Rawal claimed two wickets. The Riders will need another disciplined effort with the ball against a North Delhi side that has started the tournament strongly. 

East Delhi Riders Women Predicted Playing XI:

Vanshika Lila, Aarna Dudeja, Pragya Rawat (WK), Simran Bahadur, Purva Siwach, Bharti Rawal, Parunika Sisodia (C), Tamanna Singh, Sonakshi, Mahi Chauhan, Neha Chhillar.

North Delhi Strikers Women Preview

North Delhi Strikers Women head into their next game with confidence after securing a 10 run victory over South Delhi Superstarz Women in their previous outing. Batting first, the Strikers posted 141/4, with Shivi Sharma anchoring the innings with a composed unbeaten 71 off 54 balls, including nine fours. 

She was well supported by Upasana Yadav, who scored 43 off 42, as the two provided stability at the top and helped North Delhi build a competitive total. The Strikers’ middle order could not make a major contribution, but the top-order effort proved enough.

With the ball, North Delhi produced a disciplined performance to keep South Delhi to 131/5. Nazma was the standout wicket-taker with 2/28, while Reshika Beniwal and Apeksha Anand picked up a wicket each. 

The Strikers will take confidence from their ability to defend the total, particularly after keeping South Delhi under control through the middle and final overs. Shivi Sharma’s form with the bat will once again be a key factor, while the bowling attack will be expected to maintain the discipline that earned them their previous win. 

North Delhi Strikers Women Predicted Playing XI:

Upasana Yadav, Shivi Sharma, Ayushi Soni (C), Nazma, Archana, Samaira Raghav, Riya Shokeen (WK), Reshika Beniwal, Priya Mishra, Shivani Jangid, Apeksha Anand.

Weather Conditions

Warm and humid conditions are expected in Delhi for the afternoon, with increasing cloud cover and a chance of showers around the match window. Rain could be a factor, so there is some weather uncertainty for the 1:30 PM start.   

EDRW vs NDSW Pitch Report

The Arun Jaitley Stadium has generally offered a good batting surface in the Women’s DPL, with even bounce allowing batters to play their shots once they settle. There can be some assistance for spinners in the middle overs, while bowlers who vary their pace can be effective as the innings progresses.  A total around 150–160 should be competitive. 

Toss: To Bowl

The toss could be important with rain in the forecast for the afternoon. The captain winning the toss is likely to field first, keeping the option of chasing a target if the conditions become more favourable later.
