RCB vs UPW Updates: Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Smriti Mandhana won the toss and elected to bat against UP Warriorz at Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai. RCB, who lost the first three matches, made three changes to their playing XI. While UP Warriroz also included Grace Harris into the XI in place of Shabnim Ismail. Smriti Mandhana and Co. are in desperate search of a win after losing their first three matches. The franchise has started facing the heat of the fans after their below-par show in the initial stage of the tournament despite having a star-studded squad. Mandhana and Perry have failed to produce the match-winning efforts
which are expected from them in big matches. While the bowlers have also struggled to find their rhythm on the pitch. Megan Schutt and Renuka Thakur have failed to trouble the batters so far in the tournament.
While UP Warriorz made a gamble by dropping Grace Harris from the XI in their last match against Delhi Capitals which backfired for them as they lost the match despite Tahlia McGrath’s 90-run knock. Warriorz need to sort their four overseas players as they have a lot of quality in the department and it’s tough to leave out anybody. Deepti Sharma has also failed with the bat in the first two matches.
Alyssa Healy missed here century but she helped UP Warriorz thrash Royal Challengers Bangalore by 10 wickets here. UP Warriorz chased down the 139-run target in just 13 overs to hand RCB their fourth defeat in a row. Shambolic performance from Bangalore tonight as they were completely outclassed UP Warriorz in all three departments. UP Warriorz (139/0 in 13 overs) thrash Royal Challengers Bangalore (138) by 10 wickets
Sophie Ecclestone wrapped Royal Challengers Bangalore’s innings by dismissing Renuka Singh and Sahana Pawar in back-to-back deliveries. Sensational from UP Warriroz as one stage RCB were looking to post anything near 175 but they have restricted them to a below par score here at a good batting surface. Royal Challengers Bangalore 138 all out in 19.3 overs
