WPL 2026: DC Captain Jemimah Rodrigues Opts To Field Against Gujarat Giants, Georgia Wareham Replaces Danni Wyatt-Hodge

DC vs GG WPL 2026: Delhi Capitals (DC) captain Jemimah Rodrigues won the toss and opted to field against Gujarat Giants (GG) in their Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026 match at the BCA Stadium, Kotambi in Vadodara on Tuesday.

Delhi and Gujarat, both on 6 points, clash today with the winner gaining a crucial buffer. Delhi rides a 2-match winning streak, while Gujarat bounced back from a 3-match losing streak with a victory over UP Warriorz.

Speaking at the time of toss, Jemimah Rodrigues said, "We like to bowl first. It just gets a little better in the second innings; dew isn't coming through. The pitch looks harder and should come onto the bat better. We just need to stick to our game plan and execute well. 100%, you learn so much from every game, you can't get everything correct, but the team makes me look better 9as a captain). No changes for us today."

Gujarat Giants Ashleigh Gardner said, "We were batting first anyway, so it didn't really matter. Having Sophie in the middle-order gives us a lot of firepower - a forced change tonight, Dani Wyatt is out with sickness, Georgia Wareham comes back, and Sophie will go back to the top of the order. We just need to get the process right, and the rest will take care of itself."
