Opening the batting with wicket-keeper Alyssa Healy (39), Perry scored an outstanding 70* (56) with the help of four fours and four sixes. Perry’s best shot had come on the last delivery of Sydney’s innings when she hit Nicola Carey for a six towards the mid-wicket region.
The colossal six saw the ball not just hitting the mirror of an ambulance but also breaking it. The video and image of the charity vehicle were uploaded on social media platform by Sydney Sixers.
