DC WPL 2026 Schedule: Full List Of Matches, Dates, Timings, Venue

The Delhi Capitals enter the 2026 edition of the Women's Premier League (WPL) with one clear mission-to finally lift the trophy that has narrowly eluded them for three consecutive seasons.

Despite reaching all three finals since the tournament's inception, the franchise has yet to convert those appearances into a championship. Under the leadership of Jemimah Rodrigues, the Capitals will hope this is the year they script a different ending.

DC WPL 2026 Schedule

Delhi's campaign begins with a challenging opener against the Mumbai Indians, the very team that has denied them the title twice. Adding to the difficulty is the absence of Australian all-rounder Annabel Sutherland, who pulled out due to personal reasons. While the team has roped in Alana King as her replacement, the Australian leg-spinner has had limited WPL exposure, featuring in just one match so far.

At the 2026 auction, Delhi opted for reliability over experimentation, strengthening their squad with players capable of delivering under pressure. Their spin department-featuring Sneh Rana and Minnu Mani-appears particularly promising and could play a decisive role on Indian surfaces. The Capitals have also bolstered their depth with West Indies' Chinelle Henry and Indian left-arm spinner Shree Charani, giving the team more balance and flexibility.

In the batting unit, Jemimah Rodrigues continues to be the heartbeat of the side. After an exceptional 2025 season, the Indian star will aim to carry forward her form into this year's campaign. With 507 runs in 27 WPL matches, she remains one of the most consistent performers in the league. Complementing her is Laura Wolvaardt, fresh off a sensational run at the 2025 Women's World Cup, where she finished as the tournament's leading scorer.

The Capitals' schedule features a mix of high-intensity clashes, with the first leg in Navi Mumbai and the latter half in Vadodara. As they prepare for another title push, the question remains: can Delhi finally break the final barrier in 2026?
