On This Day: Royal Challengers Bengaluru win WPL, their first-ever title, defeat Delhi Capitals in 2024 final | Cricket News

Published by Webster

With the 2025 Women’s Premier League (WPL) season wrapping up with Mumbai clinching the crown for the second time, defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) couldn’t defend their crown, failing to even reach the play-offs this time around. But last year, the Smriti Mandhana-led side had created history by winning the WPL trophy which ended RCB’s title draught with the men’s team failing to win the IPL title in 17 IPL seasons. Last year on March 17, RCB had spun their way to a win against Delhi Capitals in the WPL final, ending a long wait for a fanbase that has made their voice heard loud and clear from south to north. DC could just manage 113 batting first, RCB took their time but eventually got there with three balls to spare, with Richa Ghosh hitting the winning runs, and fittingly, Ellyse Perry remaining unbeaten on 35. With Lanning and Marizanne Kapp still around, DC hoped for a fighting total. Given that 130-odd was defended a couple of nights ago at the venue, DC could …

WPL 2025: How Harmanpreet Kaur with her best season of franchise cricket inspired Mumbai Indians to title | Cricket News

Published by Webster

With a sheepish grin, Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s Ellyse Perry reflected on her knock of 49* off 38 balls, out of a total of 199, in her side’s victory over Mumbai Indians in a league game. “Some of the cameos you see… like the way Richa Ghosh (36 off 22) and Georgia Wareham (31* off 10) batted in the end. Those contributions are probably way more impactful sometimes than just pure output of runs,” she told the broadcasters. It not only reflected the Aussie superstar’s mentality but also the importance of playing attacking cricket and posting an influential rather than a chunky knock. In a way, it summed up how Harmanpreet Kaur has batted for Mumbai Indians this season, as her side emerged as champions on Saturday in Mumbai for the second time in three seasons of the WPL, defeating Delhi Capitals in a thriller. Harmanpreet’s tally of runs and average over three seasons of the Women’s Premier League read like this. In 2023, 281 runs at 40.14; in 2024, 268 runs at 53.80, and in …

Delhi Capitals played their last league match on March 7 in Lucknow, and they will next be in action on Saturday in the final as their top spot was finally confirmed on Tuesday.

It’s the business end of the Women’s Premier League (WPL), and the qualification scenarios are getting clearer. Finalists in 2023 and 2024, Delhi Capitals have once again been the team to beat in the league stage and became the first team to seal their qualification for the playoffs.

Here’s a look at team-by-team scenarios: Delhi Capitals (8 matches, 10 points) The most consistent franchise in the WPL, Meg Lanning’s DC are guaranteed a spot in either the Eliminator or the Final. However, they are still not guaranteed the top spot as they have finished their league play on 10 points from 8 matches. They can just wait and watch if Mumbai Indians or Gujarat Giants get to 10 points at a better run rate.

WPL Final: How the wiles of spinners and cool of Ellyse Perry powered RCB to their maiden title | Cricket News

Published by Webster

When the powerplay of Delhi Capitals innings was done, the scoreboard read 61/0. It was a whirlwind. The competition’s best partnership – Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma – were off to a flier. Especially the Indian youngster, who was once again showing off her ball-striking ability, stable base with all the focus down the ground. The ball was flying off her bat. She had reached 42 off 21 balls, Lanning was doing her part, playing the second fiddle as she tends to. Then came Sophie Molineux’s 8th over at the end of which 64/0 became 65/3. In the space of four balls – that aptly read out W-0-W-W – the Aussie left-arm spinner dismissed Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues and Alice Capsey. Three of DC’s most destructive batters, all gone in a hurry. It was the over that changed the direction of the match decisively. Royal Challengers Bangalore spun their way to a win, ending a long wait for a fanbase that has made their voice heard loud and clear from south to north. DC could …

WPL Final: Average start to the tournament, hairline fracture but RCB’s Shreyanka Patil shines like a diamond | Cricket News

Published by Webster

The first thing that strikes you about Shreyanka Patil, beyond her excellent skills as a bowler, is the confidence with which she carries herself. It made Ellyse Perry, the greatest allrounder the game has seen, gush about her during the first season of Women’s Premier League. “To see her come out and bat the way that she does, but then obviously her bowling talent…,” Perry gushed. “She’s a real special star for the future. I haven’t seen someone like that of her age around the world for a long time, with that kind of skill and just attitude. So, that’s really cool.” Fast forward a year, and Shreyanka has finished the second season with the Purple Cap as Royal Challengers Bangalore were crowned champions of WPL 2024 on Sunday at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. With figures of 4/12 in the final against Delhi Capitals, Shreyanka shot to the top of the leaderboard of the wicket-takers’ list. The journey there, though, wasn’t straightforward. It seemed she was coming down with the case of a Second-Season Syndrome …
