    WPL 2026: The Way She Batted Was Outstanding, Says Mandhana On Gautami Naik's Knock Against GG

    Royal Challengers Bengaluru: A delighted skipper, Smriti Mandhana, heaped praise on Gautami Naik's brilliant knock of 73 off 55 deliveries under pressure, which helped Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) recover well and put a good target on the board against Gujarat Giants in Match 12 of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026 on Monday.

    Asked to bat first, RCB had another shaky start. Renuka Singh Thakur struck in the opening over, dismissing Grace Harris for 1. Kashvee Gautam followed by removing Georgia Voll in the next over, putting RCB on the back foot early.

    Skipper Smriti Mandhana then joined Gautami Naik. The pair focused on rebuilding and guided RCB to 37/2 at the end of the Power-play. Mandhana and Naik formed an important 60-run partnership off 45 balls for the third wicket.
