A light-hearted celebration by young leg-spinner Medhavi Bidhuri has become the talking point of the Women’s Delhi Premier League 2026 after the season’s opening match. Playing for Central Delhi Queens against defending champions South Delhi Superstarz at Arun Jaitley Stadium, the 20-year-old right-arm spinner finished with figures of 2/24.
Bidhuri’s second wicket, the dismissal of Nishika Singh, caught diving by teammate Arushi Goel in the 16th over, was followed by Bidhuri’s now-famous “6-7” hand gesture. The move, which matches her jersey number 67, quickly went viral on the internet and is something everyone has been talking about.
