Royal Challengers Bangalore: Royal Challengers Bangalore’s fast-bowler Renuka Singh Thakur wreaked havoc with her spell of 2-14, giving Gujarat Giants a shock from which they could never recover from, believes former India men’s wicketkeeper-batter Saba Karim.

At the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Renuka dismissed Beth Mooney and Phoebe Litchfield by bowling from round the wicket angle. While Beth was castled through the gate, Phoebe was drawn out of the crease to drive off her and stumped easily.

"It was a fantastic display. This is exactly what RCB was looking for. Renuka Singh was excellent tonight. When she bowls to right-handers, her ball comes in. It’s a new skill she’s developed and worked hard towards being able to deliver balls like that.
