'F*ck off' - Shafali Verma gets a wild send off from South African speedster in WPL clash
The ongoing second edition of the Women's Premier League (WPL 2024) has already witnessed some mouthwatering matchups and high-octane fixtures. And today (March 5), it went a level higher after a heated sendoff during a match between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians.
Mumbai Indians' fast bowler Shabnim Ismail once again displayed her aggressive demeanor on the field, delivering a heated and confrontational send-off to young Delhi Capitals' women opener Shafali Verma.
Shafali provided her team with a blistering start, scoring 28 runs off just 12 balls, including 3 fours and 2 maximums. Notably, both of her sixes were struck against Ismail before the experienced MI and South African speedster claimed her wicket and sent her off with a dismissive remark.
Shafali successfully dispatched Ismail for two consecutive sixes down the ground, the first sailing over the bowler and the second clearing mid-off, off two full deliveries from the pace bowler.

Ismail's jubilation at the wicket was palpable, heightened by the fact that she had just conceded two consecutive sixes, an unusual occurrence in her extensive career. The South African seamer released a resounding roar of frustration and expletives directed at Shafali, who continued to walk off the field without responding.
