Despite being given a real scare, the Gujarat Giants managed to claim their first win of the WPL. RCB suffered an early setback with the loss of Mandhana, but Sophie Devine and Ellyse Perry combined forces to form a formidable partnership. Devine, in particular, demonstrated her raw power by hitting a few sixes on her way to her first WPL fifty. Perry appeared to be on track for a significant score, but unfortunately, she cut one towards backward point in the 12th over. Gujarat responded by taking timely wickets and staying ahead of the game. Ashleigh Gardner chipped in by picking up two wickets in her final two overs to seal the victory for Gujarat. Despite some late heroics from Heather Knight and Shreyanka Patil, RCB's efforts were in vain as it was too little, too late, and they suffered another loss.

LIVE GG vs RCB WPL 2023 score and updates: Mid-innings
Gujarat has delivered a remarkable batting display, culminating in a total score of 201, leaving the RCB bowlers reeling once again. The powerplay overs were dominated by Sophia Dunkley, who smashed a blistering fifty in just 18 deliveries, leaving the opposition stunned. Despite Dunkley's dismissal, Harleen Deol stepped up to the crease and showcased her impeccable timing skills, scoring an impressive 67 off just 45 balls. Although the pitch is favourable, and the boundaries are short, chasing this total will be a daunting task for a team that is struggling with confidence.

LIVE GG vs RCB WPL 2023 score and updates: RCB's Sania Mirza
According to Sania Mirza, the primary contrast between individual and team sports is the presence of a group of teammates and support staff. In contrast to individual sports, where athletes are often alone, in team sports, individuals have a network of people to rely on. This is especially important on difficult days, where instead of returning to an empty hotel room, athletes can lean on their teammates for support. The presence of a team can make a significant difference.

LIVE GG vs RCB WPL 2023 score and updates: Both team captains at the toss
Mandhana: Considering the wicket, I don't mind doing both. But would've loved to bat as well. We had the discussion as a bowling unit (about the outfield). First two games weren't the way we wanted to start. It's 8 matches before the eliminator or the final. A very important game in that context. One change - Disha misses out, Poonam comes in for her.
Sneh Rana: Would like to bat first. It's a used pitch. Want to bat freely with our batting depth. We are playing with the same XI. The environment was very positive - the kind of cricket we played. I'm enjoying the role. It adds responsibility to your shoulders.

LIVE GG vs RCB WPL 2023 score and updates: Sneh Rana in search of first win
"Disappointed with the loss, but proud of the girls, especially after last night's loss [to MI]... I enjoyed my leadership, I enjoy being the leader. The girls fought really hard [vs UP Warriorz]."
LIVE GG vs RCB WPL 2023 score and updates: Smriti Mandhana after 2 back-to-back defeats
"We could have learnt to put down a better score. We have to accept this defeat and come back better. Two-three batters got into the 20s but could not make it count including myself. We do have a good bowling side, we have 6-7 bowling options and we can't say much to the bowlers when the batters are not putting up the runs."
LIVE GG vs RCB WPL 2023 score and updates: Can RCB's big guns deliver?
RCB's top-six consists of three of their four foreign players, namely Sophie Devine, Ellyse Perry, and Heather Knight, with Dane van Niekerk on the reserves, ready to take up a top-order spot if required. This leaves RCB with a bowling attack that heavily relies on the performance of Indian domestic players, who are expected to step up quickly. Fortunately, RCB has multiple options available, and if two losses become too much to bear in a short tournament like this, they can consider making changes.
LIVE GG vs RCB WPL 2023 score and updates: All eyes on Ashleigh Gardner
Despite conceding many runs in Gujarat's loss to UP Warriorz, Ashleigh Gardner could prove to be valuable by bowling a couple of PowerPlay overs against Smriti Mandhana. A similar strategy was employed by MI, who brought back Hayley Matthews to bowl to the left-handed RCB opener, resulting in instant success despite an expensive first over. Gardner's off-spin could also be used against the opposition captain. If Mooney is still injured, Gujarat may choose to field the same XI that almost defeated UP Warriorz.

LIVE Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Gujarat Giants WPL 2023 score and updates
Hello and welcome to the match no. 6 of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2023 between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Gujarat Giants. Both teams are yet to register their first win of the tournament.
Gujarat Giants are set to lock horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore on Wednesday (March 8) at the Brabourne Stadium. Smriti Mandhana's RCB are struggling at the moment as they are yet to register their first win of the tournament. So far, they have faced back-to-back defeats in both of their games played so far. First, RCB lost to Delhi Capitals by 60 runs, and later on, they were outclassed by Harmanpreet Kaur-led Mumbai Indians by 9 wickets. Giants also faced defeat in both their matches against Mumbai and UP Warriorz.
After a disastrous start in the WPL 2023, both teams will be desperate to register their first win of the tournament. All eyes will be on RCB captain Smriti Mandhana as she's the most expensive player in the league this year. RCB's bowling attack will also be under the radar as so far they have only taken 3 wickets in the two games played so far.
