RCB did not start the chase well as they lost Smriti Mandhana and Danii Wyatt for just 14 runs. Post that, Perry came up with a magnificent innings of 57 from 34 deliveries to take RCB close to the total. Despite needing 113 from 60, Richa Ghosh’s 64 from 27 took RCB to a win.
A sublime 37-ball 79-run unbeaten knock from Ash Gardner and 42-ball 56 from Beth Mooney have helped Gujarat Giants post 201/5 after being sent to bat. Renuka Thakur and Kanika Ahuja struck early to remove Laura Wolvaardt and Dayalan Hemalatha in the first seven overs. However, it did not matter much. Mooney took the attack to RCB with a 44-run stand with Gardner. After Mooney fell, Gardner added a 30-ball 67-run stand with Deandra Dottin to post Gujarat’s highest-ever total in WPL.
