Meg Lanning - It's a nice venue to play - just one change for us. Kappy comes back tonight. We've got the squid to handle any conditions. We have got better with each game, different players standing up at different times, it's important to keep winning though
Harmanpreet Kaur - We'll bowl first. Don't have experience of this pitch, so bowling first is the better option. I'm feeling good, nice to be back, new day and looking forward to it. Two changes - myself and Ismail back, Wong misses out. We're doing a great job and we want to continue. Hopeful of getting good support from the crowd.
Mumbai Indians Women have won the toss and have opted to field
Our correspondent, Purnima Malhotra, is at the venue and she has some early news: 'Harman has walked back out from the pavilion in her match kit. Expect her to be back. And, Kapp for DC. She was marking her run up. Shabnam is marking her run up now'
Pitch and Conditions: It's slightly chilly, a bit overcast and a tad gloomy here in Delhi. We're using pitch number 3 for tonight's game. So, we've a short square boundary at 46m and a longer side boundary at 63m. The straight boundary is 64m long. It looks like a good surface, not a lot of green grass, it's brown in colour and it keeps the pitch firm. There are one or two cracks, but it shouldn't come into play at all. Lots of runs on offer, but there could be a bit in it for the seamers.
18:30 Local Time, 13:00 GMT, 18:30 IST: The caravan has moved from Bengaluru to Delhi and we're into the second leg of this season's Women's Premier League. Delhi Capitals play hosts to the Mumbai Indians in this top-of-the-table clash with the winner taking a big step forward in confirming one of the three playoff berths. After having suffered a heartbreaking last-ball loss to the Mumbai Indians in the first match, the Capitals have since then reeled off three wins in a row. The Mumbai Indians too have a similar record with 3 wins and a loss from their 4 matches so far. Only net run-rate is the differentiating factor for the two teams, but one of them will firmly sit on top after tonight's clash. Toss and team updates coming up shortly..
