After Royal Challengers Bangalore won the Women’s Premier League (WPL) title, the social media was flooded with an outburst of emotions drenched with satisfaction and memes. The outpouring contentment came from RCB fans of course, who were waiting for this kind of moment for 16 years, though the men’s team is yet to win the IPL, it was indeed a cause for sheer celebrations for the RCB fans.
There was a period of only 7 overs when RCB looked second best, as Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma combined for 64 runs in just 7 overs. That opening partnership was enough to send shivers down RCB’s spine, and DC had all the reasons in the world to think this is their day. But things change quickly, both in life and on the sports field. You can never take things for granted. You can never be complacent. And DC’s collapse happened. Not of DC universe, but of Delhi Capitals’. And you can attribute it to either DC being complacent or RCB finally waking up and taking control. From 64-0, Delhi’s team was sent packing for 113 runs only, leaving RCB with just formalities. And RCB, with the bat, acted with utmost decorum that was worthy of final. Captain Smriti Mandhana (31 off 39), Sophie Devine (32 off 27) and Ellyse Perry (35 off 37) all played their part in the run chase that never, not even for a second, looked out of RCB’s hands. Richa Ghosh added the final flurry, with her title-winning boundary adding ice on the cake.
