She scored a quick fifty off just 24 balls, hitting six fours and three sixes in her total of 51 runs. Partnering with her, Dinesh Vrinda scored 16 off 15 balls, but skipper Deepti Sharma and Tahlia McGrath struggled to make an impact, failing to reach double digits.<\/p>\n<p>Shweta Sehrawat played a stabilizing role with a solid 37 runs before Marizanne Kapp dismissed her. However, it was Chinelle Henry\u2019s quickfire performance that helped the Warriorz set a challenging target of 166 runs for seven wickets. Henry, who filled in for Alyssa Healy, contributed a brisk 33 runs off just 15 balls.<\/p>\n<p>For the Capitals, Annabel Sutherland was the standout performer, taking two crucial wickets, including those of Navgire and Vrinda, with figures of 2 for 26 in her four overs. Kapp, Jess Jonassen, and Minnu Mani also claimed one wicket each.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Capitals\u2019 Pursuit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the chase, Shafali Verma and Meg Lanning laid a solid foundation with a partnership of 65 runs in just 6.5 overs.

Lanning, demonstrating her skill, scored a commendable 69 off 49 balls, including 12 boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>Though Jemimah Rodrigues did not score, Lanning and Sutherland formed a crucial partnership adding 49 runs.
