Dayalan Hemalatha (31) shined in the death overs as the Giants posted a below-par total of 107/7 in 20 overs.

In reply, RCB lost Sophie Devine's wicket for only six runs. However, Smriti Mandhana (43) and Sabbhineni Meghana posted a 40-run stand for the second wicket to steady things. Ellyse Perry also joined the fun after Mandhana's dismissal.

Meghana went on to score 36* runs in 28 balls with five fours and one six while Perry smacked 23* runs in 14 balls, including four fours to seal the deal in 12.3 overs.
