The debutant kept a cool head and smashed the ball for a maximum to help the defending champions get off to a winning start in dramatic fashion in WPL 2024. Mumbai Indians beat Delhi Capitals by four wickets with captain Harmanpreet Kaur starring with 55 runs.
Surely Sajeevan Sajana could not have asked for a better way to mark her WPL debut! The all-rounder ensured that Mumbai Indians got off to a winning start to their WPL 2024 campaign by hitting six off the last ball as the reigning champions beat Delhi Capitals in a repeat of last year's final. Mumbai Indians needed 12 runs to win off the final over and Alice Capsey dismissed Pooja Vastrakar (1) and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur (55) to help Delhi edge closer to a win. With Kaur's dismissal, Mumbai Indians needed five off the last ball and Sajana, who walked out to bat, showed nerves of steel to send the ball flying over the long-on fence for a six to win the match for her side.Β Shah Rukh Khan Rocks WPL 2024 Opening Ceremony With Spectacular Performance, Grooves to βJhoome Jo Pathaanβ and βNot Ramaiya Vastavaiyaβ Songs (Watch Video).
