Royal Challengers Bangalore Women batters Smriti Mandhana, Ellyse Perry, Richa Ghosh, and Sabbhineni Meghana played stunning knocks to help their side post a humongous total of 198/3 on the board.

Speaking ahead of the match, Ellyse Perry said that they have been talking about getting back to the winning ways in the dressing room and expressed confidence in her team’s success against UP Warriorz. She said:
“That’s (getting back to winning ways) what we’ve been speaking about and that would be really nice. We’ve got a super tough challenge ahead of us tonight with UP and the one that we are also really looking forward to, should be a great match. Our last one at home as well, so we really want to make the most of it.
“Clearly something to do with the conditions, teams are so adapted to chasing totals these days. Regardless of the toss tonight, we’ve got a really good handle on what we require ourselves to do tonight to be successful.”
