UP Warriorz vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru
UP Warriorz have set the scene for an unforgettable finish. Their incredible display of batting led by Georgia Voll’s unbeaten 99* set the tournament high total and set up an intense finish, though she just missed her maiden T20 century when her half-attempt for second run to long-on off Sophie Ecclestone resulted in Richa Ghosh running her out.
7:40 AM IST Warriorz are dominating, yet Smriti Mandhana seems out of sorts. She will hope that scoring heavily can get her back into form and she is hoping that this critical match can provide her with another opportunity to shine.
RCB will face an impossible task of overthrowing Uttar Pradesh’s score of 226, which requires them to produce an exceptional effort on both ends of the field. They need either to win this match outright or maintain an exceptional net run rate to remain viable as playoff contenders. As reigning champions they’ll look for special efforts with both bat and bowl while their rivals UP have nothing to fear and have already shown their carefree approach in this match.
