Royal Challengers Bangalore women (BAN W) will be up against Gujarat Giants women (GUJ W) in the 5th game of the WPL 2024. The match is set to take place at M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru, which will act as host to RCB women. The home side will be high on confidence given their thrilling win in the game against UP Warriorz in their first match of the season.

Gujarat Giants women, on the other hand, lost to Mumbai Indians women by five wickets. It was a one-sided contest, and the Giants were not at their best. They would be under a bit of pressure to return to winning ways, as things could quickly change in a major league like the WPL. For that to happen, the players of the Giants need to return to form and perform as a team. They will be up against the home crowd as well.

Both teams feature some of the best players in the world. RCB women have the likes of Smriti Mandhana, Ellyse Perry, Sophie Devine, Richa Ghosh, Sophie Molineux, George Wareham, and Renuka Thakur. Gujarat Giants have the likes of Beth Mooney, Veda Krishnamurthy, Harleen Deol, Phoebe Litchfield, Sneh Rana, Ashleigh Gardner, and Laura Wolvaardt. One can expect a cracking contest between the two sides.

Following India’s heavy loss to Australia in the first Test of the series, Australian media highlighted key concerns for the Indian team, including Rohit Sharma’s performance as captain. Pat Cummins and his team’s emphatic win by 209 runs sparked discussions about India’s bowling strategy and batting collapse.

Australian newspapers like The Age underscored Mitchell Starc’s lethal bowling display as a stark reminder of his prowess in Test cricket. Starc’s fiery spell dismantled India’s top order, a performance seen as pivotal in Australia’s dominant victory. The media also pointed out the pressure mounting on Rohit Sharma for tactical shortcomings, including field placements and decision-making under challenging circumstances.

India’s batting lineup faltered against Australia’s aggressive bowling, with only a few players resisting. Critics emphasized that the Indian team’s inability to adapt to the pink-ball conditions in Adelaide cost them dearly. The media also praised Australia for its disciplined approach, particularly the consistency of its pace attack, which Starc and Cummins led.

As the series progresses, this defeat puts India under immense pressure to bounce back, especially with the spotlight on Rohit Sharma’s leadership and the team’s resilience. Fans now await India’s response in the next Test.
