Renuka Singh is the leader of not only RCB's pace attack but is also India's premier pacer. She was not at her best in the last season, but this time around, she has started off with a bang, bagging the first wicket of Women's Premier League 2025. She removed the dangerous Laura Wolvaardt with a trademark inswinger and gave RCB fans plenty to smile early in the game.

It was the third delivery of the fifth over and RCB needed a wicket as Laura and Mooney both are quality batters and if they would have survived powerplay it would have been problematic for Mandhana and her girls. Renuka Singh came up with a good-length delivery, that swung in a bit and pitched around off. Laura Wolvaardt went for a wild slog, but got an inside edge and the ball knocked over the stumps. She departed for score of six and RCB got an opening they desperately needed.

Beth Mooney Leads The Way With Maiden Fifty Of WPL 2025

Gujarat Giants' score was 35 then and RCB got another wicket after couple of overs to reduce GG to 41-2. Beth Mooney then got together with her Australian teammate and build a solid stand before eventually losing her wicket on 56 off 42 balls. 

The Smriti Mandhana-led RCB are the defending champions of the tournament, and would be looking to start off the season with a win. Gujarat Giants, on the other hand, have Ashleigh Gardner as their captain in this season, and they would be hoping that they come up with better performance after two disappointing seasons.
