Delhi Capitals' wicketkeeper-batter Lizelle Lee faced disciplinary action after being fined 10% of her match fees and receiving a demerit point for violating the WPL Code of Conduct. The breach happened during a tense match against Mumbai Indians.

The incident transpired in the 11th over of Delhi's innings, as Lee, in fine form, was dismissed for 46 due to a contentious third-umpire decision. Television replays evidenced Lee's bat leaving the crease momentarily, leading to her stumping by wicketkeeper Rahila Firdous.

Despite Lee's misfortune, Delhi Capitals triumphed as captain Jemimah Rodrigues led the team to victory with an unbeaten 37-ball 51, securing a pivotal win in their chase of 155, boosting their playoff chances alongside other contenders.
