This is RCB's first-ever T20 title across both WPL and the Indian Premier League (IPL). Chasing 114, RCB started off cautiously, getting just 18 runs in their first four overs. Openers Smriti Mandhana and Sophie Devine did not take much risks, except for two boundaries by the New Zealand batter.
The Red and Gold side had a decent powerplay. At the end of six overs, RCB was 25/0, with Smriti (12₹) and Sophie (13) unbeaten.
Devine let her arms loose in the seventh over, smashing Radha Yadav for three fours and a six. She got 18 runs from that over and that took RCB to 43/0 in seven overs. With a couple by Devine, RCB reached the 50-run mark in eight overs.
Shikha Pandey ended the threatening stand between Mandhana and Sophie, trapping the latter leg-before wicket for 32 in 27 balls, with five fours and a six. RCB was 49/1 in 8.1 overs.
