WPL 2025, Gujarat Giants vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Highlights: Welcome to our highlights of the third season of the Women’s Premier League (WPL), kicking off with the highly anticipated face-off between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Giants at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara!
Wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh’s stunning 64 (27) and Ellyse Perry’s 57 (34) helped Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) chase 202 against the Gujarat Titans in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025 opener, making them the first team to chase a 200-plus target in the competition’s history.
Their batting show triumphed over one of the greatest all-round performances in T20 cricket by Giants skipper Ashleigh Gardner, who scored 79 (37) in the first innings and picked out both RCB openers in her first over in the second. But her efforts meant the match was worthy of a curtain-raiser for the 2025 season.
Toss: RCB won the toss and opted to field first.

RCB 11: Smriti Mandhana (c), Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, Ellyse Perry, Raghvi Bist, Richa Ghosh (wk), Kanika Ahuja, Georgia Wareham, Kim Garth, Prema Rawat, Joshitha V J and Renuka Singh
