After winning the toss and batting first, DC Women set a formidable target of 203/4 in their 20 overs, putting RCB in a tough spot. But RCB Women showcased their poise and determination, successfully chasing down the target with a score of 204/4 in just 19.4 overs.

The Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women have once again claimed the championship title, triumphing over the Delhi Capitals Women in the final of the Women’s Premier League 2026, held at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara. As the RCB camp erupted in celebration, it was yet another tough night for Delhi, who found themselves as runners-up for the fourth consecutive time.
Batting first, the DC Women set a formidable target of 203, a score that typically secures victory in finals. However, RCB’s response told a different tale. After losing Grace Harris early on, Smriti Mandhana and Voll formed a pivotal partnership that swung the momentum decisively in Bengaluru’s direction.
Their smooth stroke play and relentless boundary-hitting kept Delhi on the back foot. RCB managed to hit at least one boundary in every over, maintaining constant pressure throughout their chase. A glimmer of hope appeared when Voll was dismissed, followed closely by Richa Ghosh, but Delhi couldn’t take advantage of the situation.
A crucial dropped catch by Minnu Mani proved to be a turning point, allowing Radha Yadav a vital second chance. Radha capitalized on this opportunity, smashing two boundaries in the final over and leading RCB to victory. This win marked RCB Women’s second WPL title, while Delhi was left to ponder yet another final that slipped through their fingers, despite a commendable performance.
