Bundelkhand Bulls edged past Royal Nimar Eagles by three wickets in a tense women's fixture at Daly College, Indore, on 7 June 2026, extending their winning run in the Aditya Birla Group Madhya Pradesh League (MPL) T20 Scindia Cup 2026. In the day's second match, Chambal Ghariyals defeated Bhopal Wolves to remain unbeaten with three wins from three games.

Bulls Grind Out a Close Chase

The Bundelkhand innings was built around a composed knock from skipper Anushka, who anchored the chase after an early setback. The opening stand was broken when Yashashwini was run out for 28 off 27 balls following a mid-pitch mix-up. Anushka continued to hold the innings together and brought up a well-earned half-century before falling in the 15th over for 57 off 41 deliveries, caught at long-on attempting to accelerate.

The Bulls had also lost a couple of wickets in quick succession prior to that, gifting Royal Nimar Eagles a way back into the contest. Payal Balmik then shifted momentum with an attacking 19 off 12 balls, hitting boundaries consistently to keep the chase on track before being removed by Dipti Singh at a critical juncture.

With nerves fraying, Muskan Biswas held her composure in the closing overs and steered the Bulls over the line to complete a hard-fought victory. Dipti Singh's disciplined spell was the pick of the Eagles' bowling, adding multiple twists to an already tight contest.

What Skipper Anushka Said

Reflecting on the win, Bundelkhand Bulls captain Anushka said: 'The atmosphere in the dressing room is positive, and all the players are charged up after the start we've had. Personally, I was happy with the way I batted. Of course, it would have been nice to stay till the end, but the most important thing was contributing to the team's performance. Every innings is a learning experience, and I always look back and review what I could have done better. Our focus now is on carrying this momentum forward and giving our best in the upcoming matches.'

Chambal Ghariyals Cruise to Third Straight Win

Chambal Ghariyals produced their most complete performance of the tournament so far, posting 153/7 in 20 overs before restricting Bhopal Wolves to 110/9 — a margin of 43 runs. Opener Kanishka Thakur set the tone with a fluent 26 off 18 balls, while Jincy George contributed 17 off 25 deliveries.

The innings centred on a dominant display from captain Pooja Vastrakar, who struck 63 off just 35 balls, including two sixes and multiple boundaries, to power the Ghariyals to a competitive total. In reply, Bhopal Wolves were reduced to 29/3 inside 7.3 overs and never recovered, with wickets falling at regular intervals throughout their innings.

Vaishnavi Singh, Aditi Tiwari, and Rachna Yadav each claimed two wickets to wrap up the Wolves' chase and seal another convincing win for the Ghariyals. Notably, this is Chambal's third consecutive victory, making them the standout side in the women's competition so far.
