Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women and Delhi Capitals Women are set to lock horns in Match 15 of the Women’s Premier League 2026 on Saturday in Kotambi. RCB have been the standout side of the season so far. Unbeaten RCB sit comfortably at the top of the points table and have already secured qualification for the Knockouts. Their campaign has so far been defined by outstanding performances with both bat and ball, and they have consistently outplayed opponents under pressure. One more victory will guarantee them a direct entry into the final.

They will also be confident given their commanding eight-wicket win over Delhi Capitals in the reverse fixture earlier in the tournament. Delhi Capitals, however, enter the match with renewed confidence of their own. The three-time WPL finalists come into this match on the back of a morale-boosting win over Mumbai Indians. Under the leadership of Jemimah Rodrigues, a win for Delhi Capitals against RCB would majourly strengthen their push for a playoff spot. 

Head-to-head

Matches - 8

RCB-W won - 3

DC-W won - 5

Delhi Capitals likely XI: Shafali Verma, Lizelle Lee (wk), Jemimah Rodrigues (c), Laura Wolvaardt, Marizanne Kapp, Niki Prasad, Deeya Yadav, Sneh Rana, Lucy Hamilton, Shree Charani, Nandani Sharma

Royal Challengers Bengaluru likely XI: Grace Harris, Smriti Mandhana (c), Georgia Voll, Gautami Naik, Richa Ghosh (wk), Radha Yadav, Nadine de Klerk, Pooja Vastrakar, Shreyanka Patil, Prema Rawat, Lauren Bell
