After finishing the match undefeated, the 33-year-old was Australia's highest scorer with 34 runs from 21 balls in an innings that featured two sixes and three fours. Alyssa Healy and Beth Mooney put up 51 runs in their opening partnership before Healy was out for 26 in the eighth over, but Perry finished the Australian innings strongly. Mooney was out for 20 runs after just seven runs, giving India a crucial advantage. But Mooney's wicket moved Perry to the crease, and she was instrumental in turning the tide of the match back in Australia's advantage.
