**MUMBAI, INDIA** – A day of contrasting fortunes in cricket saw several teams establish commanding leads, while a nail-biting women’s match ended in a dramatic victory.

In men’s cricket, Vidarbha enjoys a substantial 260-run advantage, while South Australia holds a commanding 354-run lead. Conversely, Gujarat faces a significant deficit of 235 runs, and Queensland trails by 54 runs. Victoria requires 220 runs to secure victory.

Meanwhile, in the women’s game, DC Women secured a thrilling seven-wicket win over Warriorz with just one ball to spare. Meg Lanning’s impressive 69, coupled with an unbroken 48-run partnership between Annabel Sutherland and Marizanne Kapp, proved decisive. Warriorz’s fielding let them down, with three dropped catches and several misfields in the final over contributing to their defeat. Adding to Warriorz’s woes, their star player, Chamari Athapaththu, will be leaving the Women’s Premier League (WPL) early to represent Sri Lanka. Alyssa Healy’s potential absence has also opened the door for Chinelle Henry to step up and fill the void.
