That wraps up our coverage for this encounter. A convincing win for RCB as they make four wins in a row. The Women's Premier League 2026 takes a break on Sunday, but the excitement returns on Monday, January 19th, as the Gujarat Giants lock horns with the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The action is set to begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), so be sure to tune in a bit early for the pre-match buildup. Until then, take care and goodbye!
Smriti Mandhana, the skipper of Royal Challengers Bengaluru, is also the Player of the Match for her knock of 98 runs! She says that it was great to see how everyone bowled. Adds that the way Shafali Verma was batting was exceptional. She says that they need to get the wicket of Shafali Verma and everyone contributed well. Adds that she played her natural game and it worked well for them. Ends by saying that Georgia Voll coming in at number 3 fits well for them.
Georgia Voll is in for a chat. She says that it was a bit scratchy at the start but Smriti Mandhana gave her confidence and she got back her momentum. Adds that she played her natural game and she was just going big and the way she batted was the reason they got the win. Ends by saying that everyone is working hard and it is nice to get four wins in a row.
Jemimah Rodrigues, the skipper of Delhi Capitals, says that she wanted to get the wicket of Smriti Mandhana and she tried everything, but it was a special knock from her. Adds that Shafali Verma batted well and Lucy Hamilton was excellent as well and these are the positives from the game. Adds that she could have got Marizanne Kapp earlier to get wicket,s but they will learn from this game and bounce back in their next game.
Presentations coming up...
Earlier in the game, after being put in to bat, the Delhi Capitals recovered from a top-order collapse to post a competitive 166, largely driven by Shafali Verma's aggressive 62 and a blistering 19-ball 36 from Lucy Hamilton. Early strikes from Lauren Bell and debutant Sayali Satghare, both claimed three wickets, that initially left DC reeling, but the late counter-attack ensured the Capitals set a respectable total.
Despite the late wicket, the game was already in the bag. Voll completed her half-century and calmly guided her side over the line. For the Delhi Capitals, it was a forgettable outing with the ball. Aside from the early strike by Kapp and the consolation wicket by Sharma when the match was done, they looked toothless. RCB marches on, while Delhi will be desperate to bounce back in their next encounter.
As the innings progressed, Georgia Voll shifted gears, turning a solid start into a dominant display. Together, the duo stitched a massive 142-run partnership that completely shut the door on the Capitals. But there was a twist of emotion near the end. Smriti Mandhana suffered a massive heartbreak in the 18th over, falling to Nandani Sharma for a brilliant 98, just two runs shy of a magical hundred.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru make it four in a row with a commanding chase! Set a target of 167, they suffered an early blow when Marizanne Kapp removed Grace Harris cheaply. However, that was the only joy for Delhi for a long time. Skipper Smriti Mandhana and Georgia Voll calmed the nerves, with Mandhana taking the aggressor's role and Voll smartly anchoring the innings. By the halfway stage, RCB were sitting pretty at 83/1, completely in control of the proceedings.
