Royal Challengers Bangalore embarked on their WPL 2024 journey on Saturday, facing UP Warriorz, where Sabbhineni Meghana emerged as a pivotal figure with the bat.

Sabbineni Meghana scores her maiden WPL fifty:
In a remarkable debut for RCB, Meghana notched up her maiden half-century in the WPL, elevating her team’s prospects. Hailing from Andhra Pradesh’s Krishna district, Meghana has already left an indelible mark on Indian cricket, representing the nation in both T20 and ODI formats. Renowned for her right-handed top-order batting, Meghana commands a WPL salary of Rs 30 lakhs.
Despite a lackluster performance in WPL 2023 with Gujarat Giants, where she managed just 81 runs across six matches before being released, Meghana’s transition to RCB has proven fruitful. Demonstrating significant improvement, she achieved her highest WPL score and secured her maiden half-century in the league.
Meghana’s innings of 53 runs played a crucial role in steering RCB towards victory from a precarious position, underscoring her resilience and determination on the field.
