๐ RCB’s BIG WIN, MI STRUGGLES!
RCB may be out of the tournament, BUT THEY WENT OUT WITH A BANG ๐ฅ!! They stopped MI from directly reaching the WPL 2025 Final, beating them by 11 runs. Delhi Capitals now happily sits in the final for the THIRD year straight. MI, tho, gotta fight Gujarat Giants in the Eliminator.
MI’S CHASE? NOT GREAT, NOT GOOD ๐ฌ
MI needed 200 to walk into the finals BUT PowerPlay?? Meh.
- Hayley Matthews? Hits a boundary right away! ๐ฅ
- Then THREE FOURS in one over from Perry! Looks good right??
- But no ๐, MI ends PowerPlay at 45/2 ๐
Sneh Rana, oh boy, she got both MI’s openers OUT, leaving the heavy lifting to Nat Sciver-Brunt & Captain Harmanpreet Kaur.
MI BATTERS KEPT FALLING!
- Harmanpreet? Gone for just 20 runs. Kim Garth’s leg-cutter did the magic ๐ช
- Nat Sciver-Brunt? Fighting alone! Hits a four and a six, gets her fifty, reaches 400+ runs, FIRST player in WPL to do so! ๐
- But then? A MISTAKE! A top-edge, AND SHE’S GONE ๐ข
From there, MI needed 71 from 31 balls. Almost impossible. And guess what? More WICKETS keep falling. Yastika Bhatia, OUT! MI sinking faster than the Titanic. ๐ข๐ฅ
LAST OVER DRAMA! ๐ฒ
- 28 needed, Sajeevan Sajana tried. Hits SIXES, brings it to 12 off 3 balls.
- Perry, shaky with the ball, bowls two wides. MI fans, HOPE?
- BUT NOPE. Perry HOLDS HER NERVE, last 3 balls? NO RUNS.
- RCB WINS!!! ๐
RCB’S BATTING? ABSOLUTE FIRE! ๐ฅ
RCB posted 199 on the board, thanks to…
- Smriti Mandhana โ Scored just 28 in last 4 games? BUT THIS MATCH? Oh, she went CRAZY. 53 runs!!
- Sabbhineni Meghana โ 26 off just 12 balls! BOOM BOOM! ๐ฅ
- Richa Ghosh โ Vital runs, quick time!
- Ellyse Perry โ 49* runs, struggled at first but made up later.
