In a nail-biting encounter in the 17th match of the 2024 Women’s Premier League, Delhi Capitals emerged victorious over Royal Challengers Bangalore by a mere run at Arun Jaitley Stadium.
Delhi Capitals Women put up a competitive total of 181 runs, powered by stellar performances from Jemimah Rodrigues and Alice Capsey. In response, Royal Challengers Bangalore fought hard, led by Sophie Molineux and Richa Ghosh, who played crucial innings to keep RCB in the hunt. However, despite Ghosh’s impressive 51 off 29 balls, RCB fell agonisingly short of the target by just one run.
