WPL 2024: Ellyse Perry eagerly anticipates the Women’s Premier League 2024 final against the Delhi Capitals after starring in Royal Challengers Bangalore’s (RCB) thrilling five-run win to knock the Mumbai Indians (MI) out of the competition at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Friday.
With this win, RCB will face Delhi Capitals in the final of the second season of the Women’s Premier League on Sunday. RCB’s unwavering determination in the 136-run chase made this game one of the season’s highlights.
Perry, who won Player of the Match for her dazzling 66-run knock, is excited about the opportunity of playing in the WPL 2024 final and praised her team’s ability to defend a low total. Chasing 135/6 for a spot in their second successive final, MI moved from needing 43 off 30 to 20 off 18 before mysteriously losing the match by five runs, with the last three overs generating only 14 runs for three wickets.

“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,” Ellyse Perry told the broadcasters.
Perry further lauded the team’s unity and their ability to stay calm against a formidable opponent while adding that she cannot wait for the final of the WPL 2024.
“The way we stayed calm against such a good side is exceptional. The way the girls have come together after last season and we have really enjoyed each other’s company on the field and off it. Overall we hung in there, the girls kept contributing, the old adage of runs on the board in a big game holds true I suppose and it did tonight. Can’t wait [for the final],” Perry further added.
