WPL 2025: Gardner's Fifty, Superb Bowling Help Gujarat Giants Beat RCB By Six Wickets
Chasing a modest target of 126, Gujarat Giants rode on a brilliant half-century by their captain and an unbeaten 30 by Phoebe Litchfield as they reached 126/4 in 16.3 overs to secure their second win of the season as they attempt to climb up from the bottom of the standings. Defending champions RCB batted poorly in the power-play, trying too much for quick runs, and were sloppy in the field, dropping costly catches off Litchfield as they suffered their third successive defeat in a row.
Chasing 126, the Gujarat Giants, who were coming after a series of defeats, were off to a good start as Beth Mooney (17) and Dayalan Hemalatha (11) put on 25 for the opening wicket. But they lost the openers within eight balls on either side of the power-play -- Renuka Singh first inducing an edge behind off Hemalatha and then had Mooney holing out to Georgia Wareham in the deep.
