WHAT A FREAK FINISH and amazing start to WPL. Sajana just did a Dinesh!

Phenomenal start to the season!

That was a great game of cricket all around. Did not feel it was a "Women" game and felt like normal cricket. I am so happy for all these Women participating and getting the credit and dues. Sajana on debut hitting that 6 will remember that for the rest of her life. Franchise cricket irrespective of countries, make or make players.

MI vs DC opening game had superb finish... What a six that was... Last six runs to win... Superb game...

Ditto with Harman Preet Kaur

Did I just miss Grace Harris opening the bowling with a cap on

Another good match. I think UP missed a trick in that last over. I'd have backed Ecclestone hitting two boundaries from the last five balls rather than giving the strike back to Deepti.

Another day and another last ball six needed to win, but bowling team was RCB...

Gujurat looking woeful once again

Haven’t been able to catch the games live since the first one but seems like the crowds are good.

Time for a sixth franchise I believe. Bin Gujarat Giants while we’re at it and then let’s have two new ones.

I'm not sure if there's quite the domestic talent for six teams yet. It could change quickly and there are seems a boost in quality this year. Since the regional structure change and The Hundred it feels like England have gone from not a lot of competition for the starting XI to a lot of competition just to get into the squad.

Mumbai are very dependent on their overseas while having very strong domestic talent. Likewise RCB.

Three teams have seemingly picked up the best Indian players while UP and Gujarat have fringe players. I wonder if it's down to the ownership.

Crowds are good on account of the caravan model. Adding too many franchisees might not work right now. The league needs to mature and stand alone on its own for 3 seasons atleast, before once can even think of adding or swapping teams.

Another really lousy performance from Gujarat
