Deepti Sharma's all-round heroics steered UP Warriorz to a thrilling one-run win over Delhi Capitals in their Women's Premier League match here on Friday.

Opting to bat, Deepti Sharma (59 off 48 balls) scored a fine fifty, but the Capitals bowlers managed to restrict UP Warriorz to a below-par 138/8.

In reply, skipper Meg Lanning slammed a 46-ball 60, her fourth fifty in the ongoing tournament, as the Capitals looked in control to chase down the total, reaching 93 in the 14th over.

But Deepti scalped four wickets for 19 runs in her quota of four overs, including a hat-trick as the Capitals were bundled out for 137 in 19.5 overs. Saima Thakor (2/30) also claimed two wickets.

Earlier, the in-form Deepti, who was elevated to the No.3 spot, anchored the Warriorz's innings even while scoring at more than run-a-ball with six boundaries and a six.

However, she couldn't find anyone to complement her once skipper Alyssa Healy (29) departed. Healy's wicket triggered a collapse. Barring Deepti, Healy and Grace Harris, none of the other Warriorz batters got double-digit scores.
