9:06pm What do you mean by your batting being in the pink of health? Just look at UPW's scorecard tonight! And that too playing donning pink jerseys on International Women's Day. They flexed their batting muscles a bit too late in the competition. Voll and Harris, former Brisbane Heat team-mates, muscled their way in the powerplay. Navgire showed why she is regarded a dangerous batter. And Henry proved evidence of the Caribbean power. Voll has been like a breath of fresh air for UPW, and she's followed her duck on debut with two fifties on the trot. Thanks to that, RCB will have to do something no other team in the WPL has done - chase the highest target to make the highest team total - to stay alive in WPL 2025. Can they? Find out shortly.

Georgia Voll: "When you get sent in to bat, you want to put up a good total. Happy with the total but it is a very good wicket, so we have to bowl well. [Missed the hundred?] Yes, I think I did. Should have known she would bowl that [yorker]. Thought it was a good wicket. Early on, the shorter stuff held on. Got better towards the end. [Opening with Harris] It is nice. You don't feel pressure when she explodes. Got myself going, nice little partnership at the top. Nice to finish off with a couple of nice innings. Worked out that way [hitting the short boundary], overall wanted to hit the gap, not the plan to target it from the start."

Dean to Voll, 1 run, OUT, Voll denied a century, she finishes 99 not out! Ohhh, these fine margins. She joins Sophie Devine to equal the highest individual score in the WPL. Dean fires it full, she can only drill it as far as mid-on, who fires a quick throw to Ghosh seeing Deepti charge back for the second. She turns back but it is too late as Ghosh catches her short. UPW finish on 225 for 5, the highest total in the WPL

DB Sharma run out 1 (2m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 100

Highest total in the history of the WPL
