WPL 2025: To Come Out And Play The Brand Of Cricket We Spoke Of, Feels Special, Says Gardner
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Despite making 201, the Gujarat Giants had a heart-breaking six-wicket loss in their season-opener in WPL to defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). But they brushed that heartbreak aside to open their account with a six-wicket win over a lacklustre UP Warriorz.
Ashleigh Gardner, GG’s captain who also became the Player of the Match, put the win down to the side playing the brand of cricket they are aspiring to put out this season. "Very pleased. Weren't that far off the other game. To come out and play the brand of cricket we spoke of, feels special. There's always things to improve on. Our bowlers did a fantastic job,” she said at the post-game ceremony.
She also praised young leg-spinner Priya Mishra for her game-changing spell of 3-25. “Priya Mishra, to pick up three wickets at this stage, makes captaincy easy. I feel like I probably missed a little bit in these two games. I also bowled a bit quick, so it runs away on these fields.”
