Renuka Singh became the first bowler to take a wicket in WPL 2025, marking a dream start for her team.
Historic First Strike
Richa Ghosh sealed the victory with a six, reminiscent of MS Dhoni's iconic finishing style, leading to comparisons between the two.
Interestingly, this was the first-ever face-off between Renuka and Wolvaardt in WPL history.
The delivery that dismissed Wolvaardt clocked 135 km/h, one of her fastest recorded deliveries in WPL.
The wicket came off an inswinger, a rare delivery Renuka uses, making it even more surprising.
No Indian bowler had dismissed Laura Wolvaardt in a WPL match before this!
Renuka revealed post-match that she had practiced inswing deliveries after tips from her idol, Jhulan Goswami.
After taking the wicket, Renuka pointed to the sky, dedicating her performance to her late father.
Wolvaardt's dismissal was not just the first wicket but also the first duck of WPL 2025.
