The tournament that began on 14th February saw record-breaking performances from the very first match of the tournament.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Highest successful run chase in WPL history<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) made a stunning start to their campaign by chasing down a massive <\/span><b>202-run target<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, the highest successful chase in WPL history. This was only the second time a team has successfully chased a 200-plus target in Women\u2019s T20s, with West Indies\u2019 213-run chase against Australia in 2023 still standing as the highest.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Highest aggregate in a WPL match<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The match between <\/span><b>Gujarat Giants (GG)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and <\/span><b>RCB-W<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in Vadodara saw a combined total of 403 runs, making it the highest aggregate in a WPL game.
