Royal Challengers Bangalore: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Smriti Mandhana is ready to lead from the front in their first match of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2024 season at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday, said head coach Luke Williams and added they are looking forward to playing an exciting brand of cricket.

“It's been great to spend some time with Smriti over the last ten days. She is practising really well as she is in a really confident and happy space with her cricket and the leadership. So, Smriti is really excited about the season ahead,” Williams said while addressing a press conference ahead of RCB's first match in Season 2 of WPL 2024.

“Obviously there's responsibility with captaining and opening the batting, but she's got plenty of support from the team with lots of experienced senior players to help her and trying to really separate the two roles. Obviously, the captaincy is one part of it, but then at other times, it's when she's out there batting it is Smriti Mandhana the batter and trying to be the best batter for RCB she can be. Because if she's able to do that, we know how much impact that she can provide for our team,” he added.
