The WPL Final 2026 Records were shattered in spectacular fashion as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) roared to their second title. In a high-octane clash at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara, Smriti Mandhana’s side proved why they are the masters of the big stage, chasing down a record-breaking target of 204 to leave the Delhi Capitals (DC) stunned once again.
The Match Summary: A Record-Breaking Chase
Delhi Capitals, appearing in their fourth consecutive final, seemed to have one hand on the trophy after posting an imposing 203/4. Captain Jemimah Rodrigues led from the front with a scintillating 57 off 37 balls, supported by late-innings fireworks from Chinelle Henry (35 off 15)*.
However, the RCB openers had other plans. Smriti Mandhana (87 off 41) and Georgia Voll (79 off 54) dismantled the DC bowling attack with a record-breaking 165-run partnership. Despite a late surge of wickets that took the game to the final over, Radha Yadav kept her cool to hit back-to-back boundaries, sealing the win with two balls to spare.
