Wed Feb 19 17:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Jemimah Rodrigues’s Stunning Innings Cut Short as RCB Seizes Momentum in WPL Clash

**Mumbai, India** – Delhi Capitals (DC) suffered a setback in their Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025 match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) today, with the dismissal of star batter Jemimah Rodrigues proving a turning point in the game.

Rodrigues, batting at number three, had looked in excellent form, smashing a quick-fire 34 runs off just 21 balls, including four boundaries and two sixes. Her innings was, however, abruptly ended when she was brilliantly stumped by RCB wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh off Georgia Wareham’s bowling. Rodrigues attempted a reverse sweep but missed, leaving her well out of her crease. Ghosh’s lightning-fast stumping sent Rodrigues back to the pavilion.

Rodrigues’ dismissal, which occurred with the score at 60/2 in the seventh over, significantly shifted the momentum in RCB’s favor. Following her departure, DC lost four more wickets for just 55 runs in the next seven overs, leaving them struggling at 109/6 after 14.4 overs. Rodrigues was the only DC batter to reach a score of 30+ runs in the match.

Despite her early exit, Rodrigues’ impactful innings showcased her class, building on a promising start to the season. Considered one of India’s top women’s cricketers, she played a crucial role in DC’s run to the final in the previous two WPL seasons. This performance further solidifies her reputation as a formidable force in women’s cricket. The match continues, and the live scorecard is available [link to live scorecard].
