Video of the Day: Kiran Navgire unleashes audacious shots against Jess Jonassen

Kiran Navgire came out all guns blazing in Match 6 of the Women's Premier League (WPL 2025) match between UP Warriorz Women (UP-W) and Delhi Capitals Women (DC-W), at the Kotambi Stadium, in Vadodara. Being sent in to bat first, the first three overs yielded 37 runs. Jess Jonassen was greeted to the crease by a commanding Navgire.

On being given the strike by her opening partner, she stepped out to a delivery floated outside off stump to hammer the ball straight down the ground. The next delivery was exquisitely stroked over cover via an inside-out special; the ball travelling for a one-bounce boundary.

Courtesy of Navgire's flamboyant strokeplay, UP-W attained their highest powerplay score in the WPL (66/1). Navgire departed for a 27-ball 51-run knock on the first delivery of the eighth over. A leading edge off a short ball was taken safely at deep fine leg.

As for DC-W, Annabel Sutherland was the pick of the bowlers. The Australian all-rounder ended up with figures of 2/26 in her four-over quota. Shikha Pandey proved to be quite expensive in her three overs. She was carted by the Warriorz' batting unit for 43 runs in her three overs.
