Shreyanka Patil’s 5-fer headlines RCB’s third win in a row by 32 runs

RCBW vs GGW Match Result: In a high-stakes encounter at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) Women continued their flawless run in WPL 2026, defeating Gujarat Giants (GG) by 32 runs. The victory was defined by a stunning rescue act from the middle order and a clinical bowling performance led by Shreyanka Patil.

From Collapse to Command

After being put into bat, RCB found themselves in deep trouble early on. The Gujarat Giants’ pacers, led by Kashvee Gautam, exploited the initial movement to perfection. RCB’s top order crumbled to 43/4 by the sixth over, with stars like Smriti Mandhana and Grace Harris departing cheaply.

However, the game shifted dramatically with a century partnership between Radha Yadav and Richa Ghosh. A late blitz from Nadine de Klerk (26 off 12) propelled RCB to a competitive total of 182/7 in their 20 overs.

Shreyanka Patil Destroys the Chase

The Gujarat Giants’ chase never truly took flight. While they attempted to keep up with the required rate, they lost wickets at regular intervals. Shreyanka Patil was the architect of the Giants’ downfall, bamboozling the batters with her variations to finish with a spectacular five-wicket haul (5/23).

Despite some resistance in the middle, the Giants were eventually bundled out for 150 in 18.5 overs, handing RCB a convincing win.

With this win, RCB remains the only unbeaten team in the tournament, firmly sitting at the top of the points table. For the Gujarat Giants, it was a missed opportunity after a brilliant start with the ball; they will need to address their middle-order collapses to stay in contention for the playoffs.
