Meg Lanning devasted, breaks into tears after DC's 2nd-straight WPL title loss; gets 'best team' backing from Ganguly

Hindustan Times  

Delhi Capitals, at one time, were cruising in the WPL 2024 final on Sunday at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, with captain Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma dictating the terms as the opening duo took down Royal Challengers Bangalore bowlers. Meg Lanning left inconsolable after WPL title loss Molineux's dream over reduced Delhi from 64 for no loss to 64 for three in a space of just three deliveries before Shreyanka Patil ran riot through the lower order after getting the crucial wicket of Lanning to fold the hosts for just 113 runs in 18.3 overs. Ellyse Perry and Richa Ghosh, however, held their nerves through the death overs to wrap up the chase with three balls to spare as RCB lifted their maiden WPL title win an eight-wicket victory. However, former India captain Sourav Ganguly labelled the Delhi side as the "best team in the tournament" while reserving the utmost praise for Lanning.
