With RCB playing their last game this season in Bangalore, Perry entertained the capacity crowd present at the venue on March 4. One of her shots also took down a car window.
In the 19th over of RCB’s innings, Perry deposited UPW off-spinner Deepti Sharma over the long-on boundary for a huge six. The ball sailed over the ropes and shattered a car window, which entertained the whole crowd as well as RCB players.
The 33-year-old Perry was also surprised, and she reacted by keeping her hands on her head after she broke the car window. The RCB batter got to her half-century off 33 balls and went on to notch 58 runs off 37 balls against UP Warriorz.

With the ball, the RCB all-rounder got the crucial wicket of Yastika Bhatia and gave away 29 runs in her four-over quota as RCB won the match by five runs and will take on last year’s runners-up Delhi Capitals (DC) on March 17.
“We are ecstatic to get an opportunity to be in the final. To defend a low total like that is awesome. The girls kept calm and pretty awesome performance from the spinners at the end. You gotta take the opportunity when it comes. Nice for me the last couple of games, it has fallen my way. The way we stayed calm against such a good side is exceptional,” said Perry after winning player of the match award.
