Australian breaks rear window of sponsor’s car mounted on a stagePerry’s 37-ball 58 helps RCB to win over UP Warriorz in Bengaluru
Ellyse Perry literally smashed her way to a half-century as Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated UP Warriorz by 23 runs in the Women’s Premier League. The Australian thrilled fans in Bengaluru with a 37-ball 58 including four sixes, one of which smashed the rear window of a sponsor’s car mounted on a stage behind the boundary.
In response, Warriorz skipper Alyssa Healy cracked a swift half-century herself, but after she was stumped off Sophie Molineux UP’s victory chase gradually subsided. The result moved RCB, playing their final match in front of a home crowd before the event moves to Delhi, to six points, equal top with last year’s finalists Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals, and two ahead of UP.
