-

 

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) secured their maiden WPL T20 title by defeating Delhi Capitals by eight wickets in the final at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Ellyse Perry’s all-round brilliance and Shreyanka Patil’s four-wicket haul led RCB to their first-ever WPL title, while Delhi Capitals fell short despite a strong start. The final showcased the depth of talent in the inaugural WPL season, with both teams battling fiercely for the coveted trophy.

Delhi Capitals got off to a flying start, with Shafali Verma’s 44 propelling them to 61/0 in the powerplay. However, RCB’s spin twins, Shreyanka Patil (4/16) and Sophie Molineux (3/20), triggered a collapse, bundling out Delhi for a modest 113. Shreyanka Patil was the star of the final, claiming four crucial wickets, including the prized scalp of Shafali Verma. Sophie Molineux’s off-spin proved equally potent, with three wickets and economical bowling.

RCB’s resurgent performance showcased the depth of talent in the inaugural WPL season, making their victory even more remarkable. Ellyse Perry, the tournament’s leading run-scorer, continued her stellar form, guiding RCB’s chase with a composed unbeaten 36. Smriti Mandhana’s leadership and composure were instrumental in RCB’s success, as her tactical nous and ability to lead from the front inspired her team to overcome challenges and emerge victorious in the final.
