And that wraps up a one-sided affair, with Bengaluru registering a commanding win to boost their net run rate and remain the only unbeaten team in the competition. The action continues in the 2025 Women's T20 League on Tuesday, 18th February, with the penultimate game of the Vadodara leg, where Gujarat will take on Mumbai here at the BCA Stadium. The first ball will be bowled at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but as always, our build-up will start well in advance. See you then. Cheers!

Renuka Singh Thakur is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for her brilliance with the ball. She says she earned the Player of the Series award during the series against West Indies on this ground so, she was positive coming into this leg. Tells she is working on her pace and outswingers. Mentions she varies her bowling technique to get some rhythm

Smriti Mandhana, the captain of Bengaluru, says the bowlers did a great job to restrict Delhi to such a low total. Credits the way they fielded as well and thinks they saved 15-20 runs. Tells the strategy was to bowl more pace but conditions offered more to the spinners. Tells that she and Danni Wyatt-Hodge have batted a lot together and they batted well and the shots came off today.

Time for the presentation ceremony...

Danni Wyatt-Hodge is in for a chat. She shares that she did say in the team huddle to make it two in two and they got the job done. Tells Mandhana was her coach tonight. Adds they have played together before in other tournaments. Mentions the pitch was slightly on the slower side and Mandhana helped her with it.

The skipper of Delhi, Meg Lanning says it was not their best night. Mentions that Bengaluru bowled well in the middle phase and they as a batting unit got starts but couldn't convert those. Feels that the games come thick and fast, so there is not much time to dwell on the loss and hopes to bounce back in the next game. Shares that batting got easier as the night went on.

Earlier, after being inserted into bat, Delhi lost Shafali Verma for a duck. Meg Lanning and Jemimah Rodrigues quickly steadied the ship and made the Powerplay count. Bengaluru came roaring back in the middle phase, and Delhi’s innings began to unravel. From a promising 60/1, they lost their way with some dismissals being the result of their own undoing. With three wickets each, Renuka Singh Thakur and Georgia Wareham played a pivotal role in bowling Delhi out for 141.

There was help on offer with the new ball, but Delhi couldn’t capitalize. Smriti Mandhana quickly found the boundaries to ease off the early jitters, and soon, boundaries began to flow from Danni Wyatt-Hodge's bat as well. With both batters ticking along nicely, Bengaluru took the bull by the horns and put the game beyond Delhi's reach with a 107-run opening stand. Mandhana was at her classy best, finishing with a superb 81, her highest score in the tournament's history.

Bengaluru make it two from two with a clinical chase! They cap off the Vadodara leg with this professional performance and head home riding high on confidence. It was one-way traffic in the second half of the game, with the dew and challenging conditions making things even tougher for Delhi. It wasn’t going to be a straightforward chase for Bengaluru, though. A few balls gripped the surface, and batting proved more challenging than it had been in some of the earlier games, as evidenced in the first innings.

Strategic break! Just the last rites left to be written in this game. Bengaluru have made light work of a tricky total, with Smriti Mandhana leading the charge. Since the stand between Meg Lanning and Jemimah Rodrigues was broken, not much has gone Delhi’s way. With the dew settling in, their job with the ball was made even tougher. Richa Ghosh walks out to bat.

Shikha Pandey To Smriti Mandhana OUT!

OUT! TAKEN! End of a brilliant innings from Mandhana! She has lit up the ground today with this performance. Shikha Pandey goes full and on middle, Mandhana steps across and tries to paddle, she mistimes and it lobs to short fine leg where Arundhati Reddy takes it. Mandhana goes but she has definitely booked the two points.
