Patidar’s Change of Fortune

Patidar’s journey has been nothing short of a roller coaster ride. Before 2022, his team released him and left him unsold at the auctions. He managed to transform his luck by taking his spot in the playing XI and smashing a century against Lucknow Super Giants.

RCB vs GG

The Royal Challengers Bangaluru will be playing against Gujarat Titans in the inaugural match of the Women’s Premier League 2025 on 14 February. This will be the second edition of the WPL. The RCB is the defending champions, but this time the team lacks some immense talent like Sophie Devine, Molinou and Kate Cross.
