Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) take on Delhi Capitals (DC) in their first encounter of the inaugural edition of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) at the Brabourne Stadium on Sunday.
Both teams purchased some well-known stars of the game to represent them at the auction last month. RCB have the likes of India star opener Smriti Mandhana (Rs 3.4cr), wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh (Rs 1.9cr), and Australian all-rounder Ellyse Perry (Rs 1.7cr) amongst others.
