Warwickshire’s Issy Wong claimed the first ever hat-trick in the Women’s Super League in India as Mumbai Indians secured their place in the WPL final.
Wong claimed best figures of 4/15, including three wickets in three balls, as UP Warriorz were bowled out for 110 chasing 183.
Nat Sciver-Brunt had earlier hit an unbeaten 72 and then took 1/21 in the chase as part of a comfortable win for the Indians. Delhi Capitals now await in Sunday’s final at Brabourne Stadium, with both sides having each won one of their two group meetings.
“It’s a pretty special moment and hopefully not the last,” Wong said. “To be honest, it’s an honour to be part of this competition.
“I’m loving my time with the Mumbai Indians and hopefully we can go all the way on Sunday.”
