GG vs DC, WPL 2023: Toss result and playing 11s for today's match, umpires list and pitch report

Gujarat Giants (GG) will face Delhi Capitals (DC) in match number nine of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 at the DY Patil Sports Academy in Mumbai on Saturday, March 11.

While Delhi are second in the points table, with two wins and a loss from three games, Gujarat are fourth with two defeats and one victory.

In their previous match, DC succumbed to the might of Mumbai Indians (MI). Batting first after winning the toss, they managed only 105 runs on the board, with skipper Meg Lanning top-scoring with 43.

Jemimah Rodrigues’ 25 was the only other significant contribution in the innings. Their bowlers simply did not have enough runs to defend as MI romped home to an eight-wicket win.

GG will go in with some confidence after registering their first victory in the competition against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).

Sophia Dunkley (65 off 28) and Harleen Deol (67 off 45) excelled with the willow for Gujarat as they posted 201/7. Ashleigh Gardner then claimed three wickets to scuttle RCB’s fight with the bat.
