The Journey
The Women’s Premier League has delivered two different champions in its first two seasons. The debut edition in 2023 saw Mumbai Indians secure the trophy by defeating Meg Lanning’s Delhi Capitals. The following season featured a new champion as Smriti Mandhana’s Royal Challengers Bengaluru lifted their maiden title, with Delhi Capitals finishing runners up for the second time in a row.
Mumbai Indians reclaimed the championship last season, earning their second WPL title, while Delhi Capitals ended up as runners up for the third consecutive year.
