Wed Feb 19 17:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Rodrigues’ Sparkling Innings Cut Short as RCB Seizes Control in WPL Clash

**Mumbai, India** – Delhi Capitals (DC) suffered a mid-innings collapse against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) today, despite a brilliant 34-run cameo from Jemimah Rodrigues. Rodrigues, one of India’s top women’s batters, was stumped by Richa Ghosh off Georgia Wareham’s bowling in the seventh over, ending a promising knock that included four boundaries and two sixes from just 21 balls.

Rodrigues’ dismissal, a sharp stumping after a failed reverse sweep, proved to be a turning point in the match. At 60/2 when she departed, DC looked well-set. However, RCB tightened their grip, taking four more wickets for just 55 runs in the following seven overs, leaving DC struggling at 109/6 in the 14.4th over. Rodrigues remained the only DC batter to surpass 30 runs in the match, highlighting her pivotal role in the team.

While this innings marked a strong comeback for Rodrigues after a quiet start to the season, the loss underscores the fragility of the DC batting lineup in the face of pressure. The match continues.
