Bengaluru (Karnataka): Ahead of the upcoming Women's Premier League 2024, Delhi Capitals aim to improve upon their runners-up performance from the last season.
"It's nice to get out here, have a bit of run around. Everyone looks in really good nick. There is a lot of improvement from everyone, and I'm super excited to see what we can produce this year," Delhi Capitals skipper Meg Lanning was quoted as saying in a media statement issued on Monday.
Lanning, a legendary figure in women's cricket, led Delhi Capitals to a near-perfect campaign in the inaugural edition of the WPL. They finished on top in the league stage, but narrowly missed out on winning the title last year. Delhi Capitals lost to eventual champions Mumbai Indians.
Quizzed about her best experience from the inaugural season, the former Australia captain said, "I loved the time last year. Opening the batting with Shafali (Varma) was a lot of fun and it is something I'm looking forward to again this year. I think as a group, we gelled nicely. It was a very easy group, nice to hang out on and off the field, we seemed to be able to come together, so it was a lot of fun. I'm sure this year it's going to be much the same."
