Having slumped to their third WPL 2024 defeat in the tournament against Gujarat Giants here on Wednesday, RCB is looking for a turnaround against hosts Delhi Capitals on Sunday.

Inconsistency hurts

“We’ve played well enough at times through this tournament to win three games of cricket. So, our destiny is in our own hands in this tournament,” Williams said on RCB’s Gameday Diary.

“I really hope that we know, we believe, we trust that our best cricket will be to beat any team in this competition.”

The 43-year-old Adelaide-born former player, who has played first-class cricket for South Australia, has urged his side to recover well during the three-day break and give their all in the remaining two league matches to be in contention for a play-off berth. “So, for us, it’s about some recovery. We’ve obviously had a busy schedule, but also had some time to think and plan and look forward to Sunday night where we’re going to put our best performance for the season against Delhi,” Williams said.

Final league match v MI

RCB’s final league match will be against defending champions Mumbai Indians here on Tuesday.

Talking about RCB’s 19-run loss against Gujarat Giants on Wednesday, Williams preferred to dwell on the positive aspects that came out of the game. “Tough night. Tough start to our innings, obviously 130 for no loss after 12 overs. I thought it was a really impressive effort at the back end of the innings, from that particular position where often it’d be 220 to 230. To keep Gujarat under 200, I thought was a very good effort,” he said, lauding the efforts of his bowlers.
