Delhi Capitals skipper Meg Lanning has skillfully guided her side through the different challenges they faced on their road to the final. She started slow with the bat with top order suffering collapse but Lanning kept her grit on which helped other ball-strikers around her to regain their form. Annabel Sutherland was a big purchase for DC in the auction but they respected the combinations that worked for them and went ahead with the duo of Marizanne Kapp and Jess Jonassen which appeared to be more fruitful. The players who came from bench, like Minnu Mani and Titas Sadhu have put their hands up and delivered as well. DC-W will not want to let their second opportunity at the trophy go.
Royal Challengers Bangalore, on the other hand, will play their first final and their will be nerves. They have defeated Mumbai Indians in back-to-back games and the second one would restore the confidence which they needed to settle their nerves. While captain Smriti Mandhana's form has been inconsistent, Ellyse Perry has grown in her stature taking the weight of the entire batting on her able shoulders. Richa Ghosh has fired more often but they have got much less support from the likes of Shabbhineni Meghana and Sophie Devine. The all-rounder duo of Sophie Molineux and Gerogia Wareham has been the key for RCB-W with both bat and ball. But the X-factor for them in the final will be two domestic cricketers, the energetic Shreyanka Patil and Asha Sobhana.
