Early wickets of Shafali, Lanning turned the match for us: MI coach Edwards
MUMBAI: Mumbai Indians head coach Charlotte Edwards said the early wickets of Delhi Capitals’ skipper Meg Lanning and opener Shafali Verma helped her team win the Women’s Premier League final here.
Lanning (13) and Shafali (4) departed with just 17 runs on the board as DC ended up at 141 for nine while chasing 150.
“150, we knew we were a little bit light, but in a final, it's always worth a little bit more. Shafali didn't come out like she normally does, and I knew straightaway that potentially we were in with a chance, because if we could get her wicket,” Edwards said in the post-match press conference on Saturday night.
