Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will hope to get its title defence back on track when it hosts Gujarat Giants on Thursday in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
The defending champion’s homecoming has been far from ideal. RCB lost to Mumbai Indians in the first match of the Bengaluru leg before falling to UP Warriorz in the WPL’s first-ever Super Over.
On the other hand, the Giants have an uphill task of avoiding the wooden spoon for the third season in a row as Ashleigh Gardner-led team languishes at the bottom of the standings with one win from four matches. Its most recent defeat came at the hands of Delhi Capitals.
