While they were unable to finish the season with a victory, fans witnessed something unusual that reminded them of superstar Virat Kohli. Mandhana decided to roll her arms over when victory was no longer in sight. The stylish left-handed opener bowled off-spin with her right hand.
Her unusual bowling action, however, became a social media talking point, with fans comparing it to another RCB superstar, Virat Kohli. Not only the fans, but even England captain Heather Knight, Mandhana’s teammate at RCB, agreed with her captain’s bowling action.
She bowls a lot like Virat Kohli, Knight said during the post-match press conference. According to Indian cricketer Harshleen Deol, the two superstar cricketers share more than just their jersey numbers; they also have the same bowling action.

A star-studded Bengaluru-based outfit did not perform to its potential in the inaugural edition of the WPL, but they will be pleased with how they recovered and avoided the bottom of the points table.
