Captain fails to steer the ship for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru once more. The huge fan following of the franchise and Smriti Mandhana looked visibly upset as she got dismissed by Deepti Sharma in the 9th match of the WPL 2025 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, India.

Notably, the UP Warriorz won the toss for the game and opted to field first. The expectation was on Smriti Mandhana to give her team a solid start and lay the foundation for a formidable total. However, that did not happen as Deepti Sharma struck gold in the fourth over.

Deepti Sharma Cleans Up Mandhana With A Magic Delivery

On the fourth delivery of the fourth over, Deepti Sharma bowled a good length delivery at the off stump line. Mandhana tried to move away from the stumps and cut it away off the back foot. However, the ball kept a bit low and sneaked below the bat to crash into the stumps, ending Smriti's stay in the middle.

The loss of their skipper and a consistent run-scorer early in the innings was a huge blow for RCB. The severity of the loss could be felt by the way the fans in the stand reacted. The RCB fans who have filled the seats to watch their home team win, were seen holding their heads as the captain walked back to the hut.
