RESULT = RCB Women won by 7 wickets
PoM = Ellyse Perry
First innings
Matthews and Sajana combined for a 43-run opening partnership. What occurred following that? Ellyse Perry occurred.
She performed an incredible clinic with the ball and tormented the woodwork with a variety of nip-backers.
After grabbing a brilliant catch to eliminate Matthews, Perry wreaked havoc with the ball, bowling four overs in a row, including the finest bowling performance in WPL history.
She took no wickets in her first nine deliveries and six in her following fifteen. 4 bowled and 2 lbw. To recap, that is possibly one of the finest spells of bowling you will ever see in T20 cricket.
With 114 runs, RCB will be through.
Second Innings
The only phase that Mumbai won was when they had a decent first few overs where they scored 43 for the loss of just one wicket right at the edge of the powerplay.
Post that, Perry made the ball talk with her fiery nip-backers and made the Mumbai batters dance to her tunes.
Chasing a low score, RCB lost 3 wickets for 39, but the pair of Perry and Richa ensured no further hiccups to help their side get past the winning line.
Sciver-Brunt had a shocker of a day in the field where she dropped 2 absolute sitters and looked a bit sloppy while fielding as well.
That said, RCB never panicked and always had the chase under control.
