Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will look to revive its title defense when it takes on Gujarat Giants in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) on Thursday at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
RCB’s return to home conditions hasn’t been smooth, suffering losses to Mumbai Indians in its first Bengaluru-leg match and then to UP Warriorz in the WPL’s first-ever Super Over.
Meanwhile, Gujarat Giants face the challenge of avoiding a last-place finish for the third consecutive season. Led by Ashleigh Gardner, the team sits at the bottom of the standings with just one win from four matches, with its latest defeat coming against Delhi Capitals.
