Mumbai erupted in joy as RCB Women lifted the WPL 2026 trophy, defeating Delhi Capitals by six wickets in a final for the ages. This back-to-back title—after 2024—affirms RCB’s supremacy, driven by Smriti Mandhana’s poise and Georgia Wareham’s match-winning blitz.
Film stars flooded social media with praise. Anushka Sharma posted an electrifying team image, writing, ‘RCB Women have done it again—history repeated.’ As Virat Kohli’s spouse, her cheers carry extra weight for RCB faithful.
Rishab Shetty matched the enthusiasm, tweeting kudos to the ‘red queens’ for their commanding victory. From cinema screens to cricket fields, these endorsements highlight WPL’s cultural impact.
Mandhana’s team displayed tactical brilliance, overcoming early hurdles to seal the deal. Wareham’s bold batting turned the tide, while bowling restrictions kept Delhi in check. Contrasting their joy, Delhi Capitals endure final agony for the fourth consecutive time, a record of near-misses.
RCB’s double delight cements their status in women’s T20 cricket. With celebrity frenzy adding glamour, the league’s future looks brighter, drawing more eyes to emerging talents.
