Sciver-Brunt brought up her century with a single in the final over, breaking the previous highest WPL individual score of 99 - held jointly Georgia Voll and Sophie Devine.

Voll's unbeaten 99 came from 56 deliveries for RCB against UPW Women in March 2025, while Devine's came from 36 balls for Gujarat Giants against RCB during the competition's debut 2023 campaign.

"Yeah, obviously I'd seen a few players get out in the 90s, so I didn't want to replicate that," Sciver-Brunt said after the innings. "But I also wanted to get as many runs as possible for the team. I'm really pleased we could get up to that total, and personally really happy as well.

"A first T20 one [century] for me, so happy to get over that I suppose milestone. Hopefully it's not the last!"

Ghosh fired 10 fours and six maximums in her unbeaten 90 from 49 balls, although RCB fell short on 184-9 as Mumbai Indians completed a 15-run victory.
