Playing at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Friday, Lanning and her team will look to get the better of the UP Warriorz once again. Here are the three key player battles worth looking out for:

1. Meg Lanning vs Sophie Ecclestone

Meg Lanning has led Delhi Capitals Women from the front, displaying good form with the bat. Meanwhile, UP Warriorz' Sophie Ecclestone has been the standout performer for her team with the ball. If UP are to restrict Lanning and Delhi, Sophie will have a key role to play.

2. Kiran Navgire vs Radha Yadav

In Kiran Navgire, UP Warriorz possess an explosive opener who is capable of getting the team off to a flying start. Radha Yadav is the leading wicket-taker for Delhi Capitals Women. She will want to carry her form in this contest and will have the responsibility to dismiss her at the top.

3. Shafali Verma vs Grace Harris

Shafali Verma is a solid opener, known for her ability to take the attack to the opposition with a high strike-rate. While she will be keen to put in some big hits with the bat, the onus will be on off-spinner Grace Harris to prevent Shafali from scoring big.
