In a moment that sent social media into a frenzy, UP Warriorz skipper Alyssa Healy was seen donning Delhi Capitals (DC) colours during the 40th match of the IPL 2025 season between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and DC. While Healy is a cornerstone of UP Warriorz in the Women’s Premier League, on this night in Lucknow, her heart clearly belonged to her husband — DC’s pace spearhead Mitchell Starc.
Alyssa Healy spotted donning the Delhi Capitals jersey
Cricket fans couldn’t help but notice Healy’s bright DC jersey in the Ekana Stadium stands as Starc steamed in with the new ball. Her enthusiastic support stood out — not just for the camera, but also in the hearts of fans who flooded social media with reactions, memes, and heartwarming comments. “Pati over loyalty,” one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter), summing up the mood perfectly.
While DC celebrated a comprehensive win, it was Healy’s unexpected outfit choice that dominated post-match discussions. Known for her sharp wit and banter, fans now eagerly await Healy’s response to the online chatter. Moments like these are a reminder of cricket’s softer side — beyond rivalries and regional loyalties. Healy supporting Starc in the middle of IPL madness was a sweet chapter in the ongoing love story between two modern cricket legends.
