Harleen Deol Silences Critics with Blistering Fifty After 'Retired Out' Controversy

  • Harleen Deol smashed an unbeaten 64 off 39 balls, including 12 boundaries, leading UP Warriorz to a 7-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians in WPL 2026.
  • Her performance came after she was controversially 'retired out' in the previous match against Delhi Capitals while on 47 runs.
  • Deol expressed that the previous incident gave her confidence, helping her to focus on timing rather than overhitting on a challenging pitch.
  • UP Warriorz secured their first win of the season, while Mumbai Indians suffered their second defeat in four matches.
  • Nat-Sciver Brunt's 65 off 43 balls and two wickets were key for Mumbai Indians, but ultimately not enough to secure a win.

Why It Matters: Harleen Deol's resilient 64* after a 'retired out' incident powered UP Warriorz to their first WPL 2026 win.
