The WPL winners list is short but full of drama. In four seasons of the Women’s Premier League, only two teams have lifted the trophy — Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, with two titles each — while Delhi Capitals have lost all four finals. Here is every champion, every final, and every individual award winner in the league’s history. (For the broader picture, a quick search of the WPL winners list shows how much attention each final drew.)

2023: Mumbai Indians start the story
The inaugural final at Brabourne Stadium on 26 March 2023 saw Delhi Capitals stumble to 131/9 before Mumbai chased 134/3 with 7 wickets in hand. Nat Sciver-Brunt’s unbeaten 60 won Player of the Match; Meg Lanning’s 345 runs took the Orange Cap and Hayley Matthews’ 16 wickets the Purple Cap.
2024: RCB break through
Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s first title came in New Delhi on 17 March 2024, skittling Delhi for 113 and chasing 115/2 with 8 wickets to spare. Sophie Molineux’s 3/20 was the final’s decisive spell. Ellyse Perry (347 runs) and Shreyanka Patil (13 wickets) topped the charts.
2025: Mumbai’s defence
Mumbai Indians became the first two-time champions on 15 March 2025, defending 149/7 against Delhi by 8 runs at Brabourne. Harmanpreet Kaur’s 66 won the final’s Player of the Match award, while Nat Sciver-Brunt produced the greatest individual WPL season ever — 523 runs (the first 500-run season) plus 12 wickets — and Amelia Kerr’s 18 wickets took the Purple Cap.
2026: The greatest final
The 5 February 2026 final in Vadodara is the best the league has produced. Delhi’s 203/4 was the highest first-innings total in a WPL final — then RCB chased 204/4 with two balls to spare, the highest successful chase in WPL history. Smriti Mandhana’s 87 (Player of the Match) and Georgia Voll’s 79 powered a record 165-run second-wicket stand. Mandhana’s 377 runs won the Orange Cap; Sophie Devine’s 17 wickets won the Purple Cap and the Player of the Series award.
Delhi Capitals: Four Finals, No Title
No team defines the WPL like Delhi Capitals — for the wrong reason. They have reached every final (2023, 2024, 2025, 2026) and lost them all: twice to Mumbai Indians, twice to Royal Challengers Bengaluru. No other franchise in a major T20 league has lost four consecutive finals. Until they win one, every WPL season will be framed by the question of whether Delhi can finally finish the job.
