Vadodara, Feb 14 (UNI) Gujarat Giants showcased a remarkable turnaround to post a commanding total of 201/5 against Royal Challengers Bangalore in their Women's Premier League (WPL) clash here on Friday.
At one point, their innings seemed to be faltering, with even reaching 150 appearing to be a challenge. However, the game took a dramatic turn after the first strategic time-out, when skipper Beth Mooney (56) shifted gears. Her calculated aggression set the tone, but after reaching her half-century, she departed, leaving the onus on the middle order.
Ashleigh Gardner then stepped up and delivered a devastating counterattack. She unleashed an array of strokes, finding the boundary with precision. Any ball in her hitting arc disappeared into the stands, leaving the RCB bowlers searching for answers.
