NEW DELHI: Gujarat Giants skipper Sneh Rana won the toss and opted to bat against Delhi Capitals in their Women's Premier League (WPL) match at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Saturday.
Laura Wolvaardt, who replaced their injured Gujarat Giants skipper Beth Mooney in the team, made it to the playing XI. The Giants brought in Georgia Wareham for a second change.
Delhi made only one change, bringing in Laura Harris.
"We would like to bat first on a fresh wicket. We have two changes, Laura and Georgia are in. It's amazing for us that Laura has joined us, we are excited. It's just the team combination for the particular day. Everything is settled, and everyone is in a good shape," Giants skipper Rana said after winning the toss.
"The wicket looks pretty similar, hopefully it plays well. We are going in with the smart option, Laura Harris comes in. It's hard to get the combination right, right from the beginning of the tournament. Our batters have been okay, we need to work on that. Hopefully I can start well," Delhi captain Meg Lanning said at the toss.
