RCB vs GG WPL 2026: Royal Challengers Bengaluru, on the back of a hundred-run partnership between Radha Yadav and Richa Ghosh and Shreyanka Patil's brilliant fifer, had beaten Gujarat Giants by 32 runs and won their third match of the season. While batting first, Yadav (66 off 47 balls) and Ghosh (44 off 28 balls) built a partnership for the fifth wicket and helped the team post a target of 182 runs after reeling at 43/4 in the sixth over.
The RCB bowlers then skittled the Gujarat Giants out for just 150 runs as Patil (5/23) and England pacer Lauren Bell (3/29) rattled their batting order.
At one point, it looked like Gujarat Giants might win this match as Bharti Fulmali had scored a gritty knock of 39 runs off 20 balls, but Bell then took her wicket as GG was 139/7, and then failed to bounce back after that.
