Devine’s Brutal Assault Yields WPL Record as Rana Concedes Costliest Over

Power met precision in dramatic fashion as Sophie Devine smashed Renuka Singh Rana for 32 runs in a single over, setting a new record for the most expensive over in Women's Premier League history.

The over unfolded as a statement of intent. Devine, already well set, read the length early and committed fully to her shots, combining raw power with clean timing. Boundaries flowed relentlessly — over the infield, into the deep, and beyond the ropes — leaving little margin for error and no respite for the bowler.

Rana, usually known for her control and new-ball effectiveness, found herself under sustained attack. Attempts to vary length and pace were punished, with Devine capitalising on anything remotely hittable. By the end of the over, the momentum of the match had swung decisively.

The record-breaking assault not only lifted Devine’s innings but also injected immediate energy into her team’s total, putting the opposition under intense scoreboard pressure. Moments like these underline the evolving power and fearlessness of the WPL, where individual brilliance can redefine games in a matter of deliveries.

Devine’s 32-run over will now stand as a benchmark — and a reminder of how quickly matches can turn when confidence meets opportunity.
