Ellyse Perry Showers Praises On Ahuja And Ghosh After RCB’s Thrilling Chase Against Gujarat Giants

February 15, 2025: Ellyse Perry, the star batter for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), praised her teammates Kanika Ahuja and Richa Ghosh after their outstanding contributions in RCB’s successful chase of 202 against Gujarat Giants (GG) in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025 season opener.

Reflecting on Ahuja’s return to the team after missing last year’s season due to injury, Perry expressed her admiration for Ahuja’s immediate impact. “Kanika missed last year due to injury, so for her to come back and make an immediate impact for the group was superb,” Perry said, acknowledging Ahuja’s crucial role in the win.

Perry also showered praise on Richa Ghosh, whose match-winning knock of 64* off 27 balls was a key factor in RCB’s victory. “Richa, you know, she does it with so much poise and calmness, it’s pretty awesome to watch. Every time the ball is on her side, she puts it over the rope,” Perry remarked, highlighting Ghosh’s consistency and composure during high-pressure moments.

The two players were part of a sensational partnership, with Ghosh’s explosive 64* and Ahuja’s crucial 30* off 13 balls forming the backbone of RCB’s chase. Their unbroken 93-run stand in just 37 balls sealed the win for RCB, demonstrating their ability to handle the pressure and power through the chase. This dominant performance has solidified RCB’s reputation as one of the most formidable teams in the tournament.
