Delhi Capitals might have made a mistake in the Women's Premier League. The team has released its captain Meg Lanning ahead of the Mega auction, who has been a dynamic player in the game. After being released, Lanning is taking use of every game to ensure that to Delhi Capitals.

Fans remain eager to see which team gets the former DC Captain in the next season.

The current edition of the Women's Big Bash League has been going on for a while. But Meg Lanning showcased her inner beast after the retention list was given by the teams ahead of the mega auction. She got to know that despite leading Delhi Capitals to the finals of the tournament, she has been released by the team.

  • Runs: 288
  • Average: 96.00
  • Strike Rate: 163.63

The retention list was revealed on 7 November, and Lanning played her next game for Melbourne Stars on 10 November.

Later in the match between Melbourne Stars and Perth Scorchers, it was time for Lanning to shine. Batting first, Lanning went on to score 90 runs for the team in just 55 balls, contributing to a great extent to the total set by them. Perth Scorchers fell short by 16 runs in the target, as Lanning

Her next game didn't go well but Lanning ensured to regain her form quickly. In the recent match against Sydney Sixers, Lanning was able to score 135 runs in just 74 balls, making it her best record in the history of the tournament. Moreover, she has been the top scorer of the tournament, with 288 runs in just 4 innings.

2. Lanning's Contribution to DC

Meg Lanning has contributed a lot to Delhi Capitals ever since the start of the Women's Premier League.

  • Innings: 27
  • Not Out: 3
  • Runs: 952
  • Average: 39.66
  • Strike Rate: 127.10

The team has made it to the finals of the tournament across all the three editions which have been played. But there is one issue, the team has never won the finals with Lanning as the captain. Two times they have lost the finals against Mumbai Indians, and once they have also

It was a tough decision made by Delhi Capitals Women to release Meg Lanning from their line-up. But at the same time, it should also be noted that Delhi Capitals are not having a single Right to Match card. This puts the team in a problematic situation, as they would have to bid in the mega auction.

The competition will surely be big around the bidding related to Meg Lanning. She has been a top performer in the Women's Premier League, but now her form has gone better after the retention list has been released. A team which needs a new captain and an opening batter will surely be bidding big for Meg Lanning.
