WPL 2026 Final: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Delhi Capitals (DC) will meet in the Women’s Premier League final on Thursday, bringing the fourth edition of the tournament to its conclusion in Vadodara. RCB are aiming to add a second championship to their tally, whereas DC have reached the final in every season so far but have yet to secure the title.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru head into the final as clear favourites after dominating the league phase and sealing direct qualification for the title clash. Delhi Capitals, by contrast, had to negotiate the longer route, but produced a commanding display against Gujarat Giants in the Eliminator to reach a fourth successive WPL final. With three final defeats behind them, Delhi are once again pursuing a long-awaited breakthrough, leaving Jemimah Rodrigues with a significant challenge.
Having lifted the trophy in the tournament’s second season, RCB will rely heavily on Smriti Mandhana and Grace Harris to provide a strong platform with the bat. Lauren Bell’s impact could prove decisive, with the seamer establishing a reputation this season for sustained spells of dot balls. As the WPL 2026 reaches its climax, the final is expected to deliver high drama, with both Mandhana and Jemimah Rodrigues aiming to lead by example.
Leading the charge with eyes locked on the ultimate goal 🏆
