Team News and Updates
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: The defending champions started their 2025 campaign with a win against Gujarat Giants in a high scoring match. The Royals chased down 201 with the middle order firepower and this is going to be their key resource for the rest of the tournament as well.
RCB Women might seek to strengthen their bowling with the inclusion of experienced Sneh Rana. Other than that, RCB is expected to land the same playing11 as there were no specific reasons to make any change in the starting11.
Squad: Smriti Mandhana(c), Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, Ellyse Perry, Raghvi Bist, Richa Ghosh(w), Kanika Ahuja, Georgia Wareham, Kim Garth, Prema Rawat, Joshitha VJ, Renuka Thakur Singh, Jagravi Pawar, Heather Graham, Sabbhineni Meghana, Sneh Rana, Ekta Bisht, Nuzhat Parween, Charlie Dean
Probable Playing11: Smriti Mandhana (c), Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, Ellyse Perry, Raghvi Bist, Richa Ghosh (wk), Kanika Ahuja, Georgia Wareham, Kim Garth, Prema Rawat, Joshitha V J, Renuka Thakur Singh
Delhi Capitals: The two-time finalists, Delhi Capitals, have consistently been a strong team but have struggled to capitalize on crucial moments. This season, they look more formidable than ever, having already defeated the inaugural champions in their opening match of 2025. With momentum on their side, they are now set to take on RCB in what promises to be an exciting clash.
They are a strong squad and this is simply reflected by the exclusion of Marizanne Kapp, the top all-rounder of the current women Crickets. They are expected to land a similar playing11 but might look to introduce Marizanne Kapp for Alice Capsey!
Squad: Meg Lanning(c), Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Annabel Sutherland, Alice Capsey, Niki Prasad, Sarah Bryce(w), Shikha Pandey, Radha Yadav, Arundhati Reddy, Minnu Mani, Titas Sadhu, Sneha Deepthi, Nandini Kashyap, Nallapureddy Charani, Taniya Bhatia, Jess Jonassen, Marizanne Kapp
