Grace Harris blitz powers RC to win over UP Warriorz

Bengaluru, Jan 12 (UNI) Grace Harris' blistering 85 powered Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women (RCBW) to a dominant nine-wicket victory over UP Warriorz Women (UPW) in the fifth match of the Women's Premier League 2026, helping RCBW reclaim the top spot on the points table.
Chasing a modest 144, RCBW's openers Harris and Smriti Mandhana (47 not out) forged a commanding 137-run partnership off 69 balls, with 78 runs coming in the PowerPlay alone. Their aggressive start neutralised UPW's total after the visitors' top order collapsed, leaving them to post only 143 for 5 in their 20 overs.
UPW experimented with Harleen Deol as Meg Lanning's partner, but the move failed. Lanning survived a low catch early on, but successive wickets fell, including Kiran Navgire and Shweta Sehrawat, as Nadine de Klerk and RCB's bowlers exploited the top-order fragility. Deandra Dottin and Deepti Sharma fought back in the latter half, adding 93 runs for the final wicket, ensuring a competitive total.
