The second watch of WPL is set to be a clash of titans with both sides packing some heavyweights in the form of Smriti Mandahan, Meg Lanning, Ellyse Perry, Shafali Verma and Dane Van Niekerk

The second match of Women's Premier League 2023 will be played between Smriti Mandhana-led Royal Challengers Bangalore and Meg Lanning-led Delhi capitals. The match will be played at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai and will begin at 3:30 pm. 

The encounter between the two star-studded sides promises to be an interesting one with many stars set to be pitted against each other. Both sides will also be looking to start the tournament on a winning note and join Mumbai Indians at the top of the table with 2 crucial points. 

Players to watch:

All eyes will be on Mandhana and Lanning's captaincy debut in the WPL. Mandhana will look to deserve the tag of the tournament's most expensive player while  Lanning will try to carry her form coming just a week after Australia won their 6th world cup title. 

RCB's weak bowling attack will have to conquer the challenge of bowling to DC's explosive batting lineup filled with players like Shafali Verma and Jemimah Rodrigues.
