WPL 2026: De Klerk Pulls Off A Heist With Unbeaten 63 As RCB Steal Thrilling Win Over MI
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Thanks to a stunning late assault by Nadine de Klerk, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) pulled off a dramatic three-wicket win over defending champions Mumbai Indians (MI) in the opening match of the 2026 Women’s Premier League (WPL) at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Friday.
After picking 4-26 and helping RCB keep MI to 154/6, the seam-bowling all-rounder smashed an unbeaten 63 off 44 balls, including 20 runs off the final four deliveries – two fours and as many sixes -- to steer RCB home on the last ball.
Coming in at 63/4, a calm and composed Nadine held her nerve and carried her form from the recent World Cup into a high-class knock that turned the game on its head. Her nerveless hitting under pressure, along with being given three reprieves in the 19th over, ensured RCB began the season with a thrilling victory and set the tone for a tournament that promises more intensity and drama.
