Royal Challengers Bangalore were finally able to open their WPL 2023 campaign with a five-wicket win over UP Warriorz on Wednesday.

Ellyse Perry and the bowlers shined on the day, while Kanika Ahuja showed her true potential with the bat as the franchise kept their hopes of reaching the playoffs alive.

RCB had won the toss on the day and decided to bowl first. The decision proved to be a masterstroke as Sophie Devine got rid of Devika Vaidya and the in-form Alyssa Healy in the very first over of the game.

UPW went on to lose Tahlia



McGrath in the very next over as they found themselves in all sorts of trouble. Kiran Navigare and Grace Harris did some repair work but Navigare's stay was ended by Asha Shobhana.

Shobhana then dismissed Simran Shaikh with UPW left reeling at 31 for five. Deepti Sharma joined Harris in the middle and the duo slowly rebuilt the innings.

Harris was in good knick on the day as she took on the role of the aggressor in the innings and found the perfect partner in Deepti. The duo put on a partnership of 69 runs before Ellyse Perry came in to change the complexion of the game.
