Views:
Yesterday’s match was a turning point for Royal Challengers Bangalore W. The team got their first defeat in the Women’s Premier League 2024. DC W won the match.
Our prediction for the contest, RCB W vs DC W landed in Delhi Capitals W’s favor. Even though the pitch at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru favors the target-chasing team.
In this team, this notion changed, as RCB W won the toss and the captain chose to field first, which was the right decision considering the pitch status.
It seemed like Delhi Capitals W were hungry for a win. Delhi’s batting performance could have trembled when the first wicket fell at (4.5) over. Thanks to sensible performances from Shafali and Alice, things became stable.
Both scored (50) and (46) runs respectively. Now such a performance was expected from the top-order batters. Middle order assisted well. Marizanne and Jonassen scored (32) and (36) runs respectively.
With strong batting, Delhi Capitals W were able to score (194) runs.
Talking about the RCB W’s bowling. Devine, Nadine, and Shreyanka took (2), (2), and (1) wickets respectively.
This wasn’t an easy target to chase but RCB W has a strong batting lineup. It was quite a roller coaster of an experience for the audience. Smriti started with scoring (74) runs. It was a good start, but chasing the target is a team effort.
RCB W’s team effort was not perfect. Only Smriti and Sabbhineni were able to add runs, the latter batter scored (36) runs. The team fought till the last bowl but Delhi’s bowling performance was as good as batting.
Marizanne, Jess, Shikha, and Arundhati took (2), (3), (1), and (2) wickets respectively. In the end, Delhi Capitals W won the match by (25) runs.
After this match, Delhi Capitals W are the new first-rank holders of the Women’s Premier League 2024. RCB W ranks down to the second spot.
