North Delhi Strikers Women clinched a spot in the final of the Women's Delhi Premier League T20 after a decisive seven-wicket victory against East Delhi Riders Women. Held at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday, the match concluded with the DLS method, propelling North Delhi forward to face South Delhi Superstarz Women on Sunday.

East Delhi Riders Women opted to bat first, posting a competitive 150/2 in their 20 overs. North Delhi, however, responded strongly, chasing down the revised DLS target of 113 with ease. Upasana Yadav's brilliant 65 off 44 balls led the charge, supported by Mansi Sharma's brisk start. Despite a brief rain interruption, North Delhi looked unfazed, crossing the 50-run mark by the sixth over.

Yadav continued her dominance, partnering with Ayushi Soni to keep the run chase on track. Although dismissed by Priya Mishra in the 13th over after a stellar 65-run innings, the foundation she laid ensured Soni and Monika finished the job with two balls to spare, securing their place in the final of the inaugural Adani Women's Delhi Premier League T20.

Earlier, East Delhi's Priya Punia and Pratika Rawal gave a steady start, with Rawal scoring a half-century before falling in the 12th over. Punia's unbeaten 63 off 59 balls anchored East Delhi's innings, helping them reach 150/2.
