Ellyse Perry, the star batter for Royal Challengers Bangalore, remarked in a funny way that she didn't have insurance to pay the damage after smashing the window of the exhibition car. Perry played a crucial to RCB's 23-run victory over UP Warriorz at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium.
The Australian player created a rare scene when he broke the window of the exhibition car in Deepti Sharma's over in the 19th over. When she discussed her window breaking six after the game, she remarked, "Not sure I have insurance here to cover that."
With their victory, RCB is now on the 3rd position of the points table as they have won 3 matches out of 5. Perry also commented about the energy in the stadium and the home crowd's support for the team.
All five games here have been amazing. Best atmosphere without doubt I have played in my whole career. It's such a cool feeling to have such support.

Throughout her innings, Perry supported the skipper Smriti Mandhana, who was smashing on the opposition bowlers. Perry defined her role throughout the 95-run partnership that helped RCB to create a monumental total of 198/3. Now Mandhana is the orange cap holder of the current season and wishes to continue till the end.
Have played a lot of cricket in the last two months. It's just the nature of the format, sometimes it clicks. My role was to support Smriti initially and then I could release. Really trying to pride ourselves with our fielding, it's tricky when there's a left-right combination. We put in a great effort. It was really great from the girls tonight. Great to finish on a high in front of our home fans.

Coming into the match, following an outstanding effort with the bat, RCB bowlers were able to take wickets at regular intervals, ensuring that Warriorz lost.
Alyssa Healy (55) attempted a captain's knock, but the ever-increasing run-rate put pressure on her. Sophie Molineux took advantage and got the captain's wicket.
Deepti Sharma and Poonam Khemnar managed to put up a meaningful 41-run partnership, but their efforts were not successful as RCB won easily.
