WPL 2023: Ahuja, Perry Star As RCB Beat UP Warriorz To End Losing Streak
ABP NewsNavi Mumbai, Mar 15 Buoyed by Virat Kohli's pep talk, Royal Challengers Bangalore continued to fight for another day as they notched their maiden five-wicket victory over UP Warriorz after five consecutive defeats in the Women's Premier League. After a collective show from their bowlers led by Ellyse Perry, whose 3/16 ensured UP Warriorz were bowled out for a moderate 135 in 19.3 overs, RCB sailed past the target with 20-year-old Kanika Ahuja playing the match-winning knock of 46 off 30 balls with eight fours and one six. RCB had a poor start, losing the in-form Sophie Devine for 14 after early aggression, and captain Smriti Mandhana, who had to endure yet another flop show with the bat. The right-arm seamer halted UP Warriorz’s charge when the pair of Grace Harris and Deepti threatened to take the game away from RCB, and also accounted for Shweta Sehrawat to record figures of 4-0-16-3. Devine set the tone in RCB’s favour with two wickets in the first over to return with 4-0-23-2, Sobhana Asha got plenty of turn during a largely impactful 4-0-27-2 and Megan Schutt produced a measly spell of 4-0-21-1 to cap off a combined bowling show for RCB.
