The thrilling contest, held at RCB’s home ground, marked the beginning of the Bengaluru leg of the tournament and was the third final-over finish in seven matches this season.
The match saw 16-year-old G Kamalini hold her nerve to hit the winning boundary with just two runs needed off the final two deliveries, sealing MI’s win. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur led from the front, scoring her first fifty of the season, while Nat Sciver-Brunt’s quick-fire 42 off 21 balls set up MI’s chase. Player-of-the-match Amanjot Kaur made significant contributions with both bat and ball, taking 3 wickets for 22 runs and scoring an unbeaten 34 off 27 balls.
RCB, put into bat first, started strongly with captain Smriti Mandhana and Ellyse Perry leading the charge. Perry’s scintillating 81 off 43 balls powered RCB to a total of 167/7. However, MI’s bowlers, particularly Amanjot Kaur, kept RCB in check during crucial moments.
MI’s chase had its ups and downs, with key partnerships and a brief collapse. However, the dynamic duo of Harmanpreet and Amanjot ensured MI remained on track. Despite a tight penultimate over by Georgia Wareham, which saw two wickets fall, Amanjot’s two sixes in the final over shifted the momentum back in MI’s favor.
The victory marks MI’s fourth win in six games against RCB, adding to their impressive record in the tournament. With such thrilling encounters, the TATA WPL 2025 continues to captivate cricket fans worldwide.
With a finishing act and an impressive spell, Amanjot Kaur is the Player of the Match in the #RCBvMI clash 🏆👌
