Perry, ever the cool lady, replies, “I’m tied up with something, see you soon.” Just as it seems like a routine message, “she smashes through the screen” (yes, for real) in a sleek bossy black outfit at the team hotel. And then, the pure Perry magic. With a effortless changeover, she spins into her RCB jesrey and declares, “I’m here, guys!

With Perry back, RCB’s title citadel is in full swing. Her phenomenal 347-run season in 2024, which seized her the Orange cap, played a humongous role in RCB’s maiden championship win. And now, with Smriti Mandhana, Asha Sobhana, Renuka Singh and with a star-studded squad, RCB looks boisterous. Their campaign kicks off on the 14th of February against Gujarat Giants, and with Ellyse Perry in the mix, fans are dreaming of another fairtale season!
