Australia's captain marvel Meg Lanning has made a dazzling start to her new leadership role in India's new money-spinning Women's Premier League in Mumbai.
The 30-year-old, fresh from guiding her country to victory in the T20 World Cup in South Africa last weekend, led from the front again on Sunday for WPL franchise Delhi Capitals, with a blistering knock of 72 that set up their emphatic 60-run win over Royal Challengers Bangalore at Brabourne Stadium.
Lanning, who's been at the heart of Australian women's cricket domination for a decade, reckoned that she was relishing her new challenge in the potentially game-changing league, featuring all the best players in the world.
