During the ongoing Women’s Premier League (WPL 2025) match between Delhi Capital Women (DC-W) and UP Warriorz Women (UP-W) at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, Niki Prasad made a really spectacular catch.
On the first delivery of the seventh over, the incident took place. In an attempt to get ahead of Arundhati Reddy, who was about to bowl her first over of the evening, Kiran Navgire mishit a slog that shot skyward.

Chinelle Henry’s spectacular blitz helped UP-W reach 177.
Before Chinelle Henry reached the crease after the fall of the sixth wicket in the fourteenth over, UP-W had not really regained any momentum in their innings following the demise of Navgire. On his way to a 62-run knock off only 23 balls, the West Indian destroyed the opposition bowling unit, smashing two fours and eight maximums in an absolutely captivating display of power-hitting.
Marizanne Kapp stood out among the bowlers for DC-W. She finished her four-over performance with stats of 2/18 after bowling a total of 18 dot deliveries. Jess Jonassen was slightly more costly. Nevertheless, she finished with four wickets. In their ascent to 177, the Warriorz lost nine wickets.
