Smriti Mandhana-led RCB are already in troubled waters after enduring five straight defeats in the competition. Their previous encounter against Delhi Capitals (DC) saw captain Smriti Mandhana losing to pressure after getting dismissed on mere eight runs. Elysse Perry has been the lone warrior with the bat for the team, scoring consistently. Her 67-run knock against DC led the team to a decent total of 150 runs. Though Richa Ghosh also added an important 37 off 16, the power-hitter lost her wicket at the momentous period of their innings. The domestic player Sobhana Asha delivered a brilliant spell of 2/27 but the remaining bowling couldn't provide the necessary breakthroughs. The team is yet to play up to their potential and get off to the mark.
Meanwhile, UP Warriorz with two wins of four matches, are unbothered among the top three teams in the league stage so far. Alyssa Healy-led side lost a close contest to Mumbai Indians by eight wickets. Despite the likes of Sophie Ecclestone, Shabnim Ismail, Deepti Sharma, Rajeshwari Gayakwad and Tahlia Mcgrath in the bowling attack, the team failed to restrict Mumbai Indians courtesy of Harmanpreet Kaur's sensational fifty. UP Warriorz does lack the batting depth, however, with skipper Alyssa Healy at the top scoring runs consistently and Tahlia Mcgrath in the middle, the team manages to compensate for that. The upcoming fixture has a lot to do with how the competition aligns in context to Knockouts in coming days. A win for RCB will mean the contest is well alive between the bottom three teams for the race of next round. Meanwhile, if UP Warriorz seals the show, RCB will be eliminated from the competition one for all.
