🏏WPL 2026, Match-11, DC W vs RCB W, DY Patil Stadium. Navi Mumbai 🏏 - Page 5

Martha: "Smriti messed up her bowling changes there. Yadav and Rawat need to be bowling their full four overs. Shreyanka in particular was under the pump from the beginning but she kept trusting her! "

Raji: "That's how someone needs to announce their arrival. Well done, Lucy"

Shadow-Shell: "Lucy already scored more than her total T20 runs before this match" Lucy Hamilton's highest T20 score before today was 8, scored 4.5x times that today.

Lucy Hamilton to Georgia Voll, no run, confusion and a direct-hit from Wolvaardt would've been close. Georgia Voll dives to make it back. This has pitched outside the leg-stump, but DC-W take the review for LBW.

Nandni Sharma to Smriti, SIX, floaty slower-ball and it's the leg-cutter outside off, full, Smriti sinks on her back knee and slogsweeps all the way over deep mid-wicket.

Shree Charani to Smriti, FOUR, to fine leg

RCB-W in control of this chase. Smriti leading the way. Georgia Voll on the other hand has struggled for timing but has not thrown her wicket away.

Congratulations to RCBW for their easy win against DCW, credit goes to Smriti for her 96 with 13 fours and 3 sixes. Unfortunately, she missed the century.

No 100 for Smriti. Heartbreak for Smriti and the crowd. A wry smile from Smriti as she walks back to a standing ovation.

Smriti Mandhana, the RCB captain. She is also the Player of the Match: [The win] It was amazing to see everyone bowling well, especially in the first three overs. Sayali and Bell doing what they do best. I feel everyone executed the plans well.

[Bowling] Anya has been on it, she is an experienced player and she knows having done it. We wanted to get Shafali off the strike and everyone just bowled extremely well in that phase.

[Batting] It was good. Chasing a total is a lot easier than setting up as you never knew what is a good total. When we lost Grace, I knew which bowlers to take on and which bowler to defend. Good it worked.

[Best RCB XI?] We thought we were one batter short in the last three games, and Voll coming in at No. 3 fits in well.

RCB remain undefeated and are in pole position to make it to the playoffs. Mandhana is all smiles but inside she must be gutted to have missed out on a century. It was a clinical chase form RCB. They lost Grace Harris early, but Voll and Mandhana didn't put a foot wrong. They added 142 off 92 balls for the second wicket to all but seal the chase. While Voll was scratchy initially, Mandhana was at her languid best. She hit 13 fours and three sixes before falling to a super catch by Hamilton. No century yet in the WPL but think Mandhana will be more pleased by RCB remaining unbeaten.
