RCB's star all-rounder Perry backed Mandhana in her recent presser stating that Mandhana will probably find her mojo in the upcoming games.
But no other batter played around Perry and RCB could only manage to put up 138 runs on the scoreboard. There is so much that she has learned from this competition already, both as a captain and as a batter, to make her even better in the future.

She is a great captain too, she just needs a chance to find her feet in the tournament and she will, no doubt.

Australian star Ellyse Perry wasted little time in finding her groove, scoring two boundaries off Sarvani to maintain RCB's fine run rate. It was a length delivery outside off stump, and Mandhana failed to time it and ended up giving an easy catch to Sarvani at extra cover, continuing her below-par outing in the inaugural WPL. Sophie Devine started the RCB innings by hitting Grace Harris for a four and a six off the match's second and third deliveries, collecting 13 runs in the opening over at the Brabourne Stadium.
