Wpl eliminator

Royal Challengers Bangalore: In the 2024 WPL Eliminator, Mumbai Indians needed 16 runs off 12 balls to win the final. But the defending champions couldn’t get those runs to eventually lose to the Royal Challengers Bangalore by five runs and bow out of the competition.

Head coach Charlotte Edwards rued her batters’ inability to take the team over the line in last 12 balls, where they wilted under pressure. “We’ve seen on this pitch if people stay over there. We would have taken 135 with the short boundary one side. We just didn’t control the last 12 balls that ultimately cost us a final spot.”

“That is something we will have to go and look at. Credit to RCB, they kept fighting and never gave up. The game is won or lost by small margins. Had Harman hit that six, it would have been our game.”
