A battling half-century by Ash Gardner has failed to prevent Royal Challengers Bengaluru cruising into the Women's Premier League play-offs with their fifth victory in five matches.
Her Gujarat Giants side, playing their first home match this season, briefly threatened an upset as they removed Aussie big hitters Grace Harris and Georgia Voll for one run apiece in the second over.
But RCB rallied to post 6-178 and with Beth Mooney dismissed early Giants never seriously threatened to chase it down, losing by 61 runs.
