WPL 2024: Live Cricket Score between MI and RCB: RCB's Wareham celebrates victory!

WPL 2024, Live Cricket Score: MI vs. RCB "Not really sure; we fought through the end; every time we got together, we spoke about fighting till the end," RCB's Wareham said in a post-match statement. [About tonight's Devine opening] I'm not sure, but in the end, it worked out well for us. We were being kept calm by Smriti and Sophie Devine, which was very admirable of them. [during her final ball six] I swung as hard as I could; fortunately, it worked out tonight. Sometimes things don't work out.

[About whether she qualifies as an all-arounder] I'm not sure about that; I attempt to influence the game in some way, be it with the 10 balls or anything else. Tonight, Perry's experience provided us something to defend and kept the innings going. She used the ball for it the other night. She has an effect on every aspect of the game. It's a blessing that we have her at RCB, because having someone like that on your team is priceless. The RCB chants are difficult to hear, but it's nice to see the fans chanting Smriti and Perry's names. Hopefully, we can improve and win on Sunday."
