The feeling hasn’t still sunk in: Smriti Mandhana on RCB winning WPL 2024
Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Smriti Mandhana is proud of her team winning the 2024 Women’s Premier League tournament. She expressed that the feeling hasn’t sunk in yet. Mandhana also spoke about their journey in the 2024 season, at the post-match presentation. She said,
“Feeling hasn’t still sunk in. Hard for me to come out with expressions. One thing I’ll say is I’m proud of the bunch.”
“Our Bangalore leg was really good. We came to Delhi and had two tough losses. That’s what we spoke about that we need to step up at the right time. These tournaments are about peaking at the right time. Last year taught us a lot of things. What went wrong, what went right? Management just said this is your team, build it (your way),” she added.
