WPL 2025: What is the run-out controversy in Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals? The Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025 has witnessed two brilliant clashes with the last one between Delhi Capitals Women and Mumbai Indians Women at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara. Mumbai Indians posted a modest 164/10 on the board in 19.1 overs, which featured an unbeaten 59-ball 80 by England’s Nat Sciver-Brunt. In response, Delhi got off to a strong start with Shafali Verma and Meg Lanning adding 60 runs for the first wicket inside the powerplay overs. However, the dismissal triggered a brief collapse as Delhi were soon reduced to 76/4 in 8.5 overs. Delhi eventually went to win the match by two wickets but the fate remained hanging until the final delivery was bowled, also leading to a run- out controversy. With two runs required in the final ball, Arundhati Reddy managed to get the runs but had to do it by putting in a strong drive while completing the second run. The decision was sent upstairs, leaving third-umpire Gayathri Venugopalan with a very tough call to make, which was ultimately given in Reddy’s favour.
