Jemimah Rodrigues, leading the Capitals this season, led the charge in the middle, blasting 41 runs under pressure, steering her side home comfortably. Earlier, Delhi Capitals, deciding to bowl, restricted Gujarat Giants to 168/7, despite a fighting half-century from Australia’s Beth Mooney, who scored 62 unbeaten to take the Giants to a respectable total.
