W

Renuka Singh to Shikha Pandey, out Caught by Ekta Bisht!! Another simple catch and Renuka gets her third! Slower ball that follows Pandey as she backs away to the leg-side. She tries to loft it off the back foot over extra cover, doesn't get hold of it and slices it off the outside half to backward point. Dolly for Bisht. Shikha Pandey c Ekta Bisht b Renuka Singh 14(15) [4s-1]

Renuka Singh to Minnu Mani, FOUR, a gift for Minnu Mani! Full on the pads, she shuffles across and flicks it nicely behind square. Both fine leg and backward square are inside the ring, really poor delivery from Renuka

Superb work from RCB with ball and in the field. Barring a couple of missed chances from Kanika Ahuja, they were mostly spot on. DC got off to a brisk start thanks to Jemimah Rodrigues's fluent 34, but things turned around drastically after the powerplay. From 60/1, they were reduced to 105/6 with the two spinners - Wareham and Bisht - doing a fine job. But as Renuka says in her mid-innings interview, the pitch isn't that straightforward for batting. It's holding up and on the slower side. There doesn't seem to be too much dew at the moment either. We'll see how it goes in the chase. Back shortly.

Renuka Singh has now taken 5 wickets in just 8 overs in this WPL season. She had taken only 3 wickets (44.4 overs) in her 16 matches in the previous two seasons combined

DC innings progression:

Overs (1-6) - 55/1, RR: 9.16

Overs (7-15) - 56/5, RR: 6.22

Overs (16-19.3) - 30/4, RR: 6.67
