Women's Premier League 2023: GG post 201/7 versus RCB
Gujarat Giants hammered a 200-plus total versus Royal Challengers Bangalore in match number six of the Women's Premier League 2023 on Wednesday. Solid knocks from the blade of Sophia Dunkley and Harleen Deol helped GG torment an ordinary RCBW bowling line-up. A half-century-plus stand between Dunkley and Deol helped GG set the base.
