Renuka Singh, India’s premier pacer and the leader of RCB’s bowling attack, has started the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025 in style. She delivered a stunning inswinger to dismiss the dangerous Laura Wolvaardt, bagging the first wicket of the tournament and giving RCB fans an early reason to cheer.

Renuka Singh’s Perfect Inswinger

The moment came in the third delivery of the fifth over when RCB desperately needed a breakthrough. Laura Wolvaardt and Beth Mooney were looking settled, and if they had survived the powerplay, it could have been trouble for Smriti Mandhana’s side.

Renuka bowled a good-length delivery that swung in slightly and pitched around off stump. Wolvaardt attempted a wild slog but got an inside edge, and the ball crashed into the stumps. She departed for just six runs, giving RCB the opening they needed.

Mooney went on to score the first fifty of WPL 2025, making 56 off 42 balls before getting dismissed. Her knock kept Gujarat Giants in the game despite early setbacks.
