WPL 2024: Bowlers Star As RCB Pull Off 5-run Win Over MI; To Meet DC In Final
Royal Challengers Bangalore: Bowlers, led by Shreyanka Patil’s 2-18, helped the Royal Challengers Bangalore pull off a stunning five-run win over defending champions Mumbai Indians in the WPL 2024 Eliminator at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Friday.
After Ellyse Perry’s magnificent 66 took RCB to 135/6 in 20 overs, she played a key role in stemming the run-flow and taking out Yastika Bhatia. Shreyanka was economical in her spell and took out captain Harmanpreet Kaur in the 18th over, which tilted the game in RCB’s favour.
It means RCB will now meet Delhi Capitals in the title clash on Sunday to determine the new WPL champions. Chasing 136, Yastika and Hayley Matthews hit four boundaries between themselves, including the former getting a reprieve due to a dropped catch in the fourth over. The crowd erupted when Hayley slog-swept straight to deep mid-wicket off Shreyanka Patil.
