UP managed to post a total of 135 runs in 19.3 overs, thanks to the impressive innings of Grace Harris who scored 46 runs off 32 balls with 5 fours and 2 sixes. Kiran Navgire and Deepti Sharma also contributed with scores of 22 runs each. Ellyse Perry was the standout performer for Bangalore with the ball, picking up 3 wickets in her 4 overs.

Her innings set the platform for the rest of the team to chase down the target comfortably. Richa Ghosh, who remained unbeaten on 31, played a crucial role in taking Bangalore across the finish line with 12 balls to spare.
