Perry says to cricket.com.au, “Personally it was poor timing and I would have loved to have played in the rest of the tournament, absolutely without a doubt. But at the same time, it’s not about me.”

Perry goes on to say that when she recalls the event, it doesn’t even seem like it was just the Australian team. She feels that the finals managed to create an impactful moment in Women’s cricket.

“It was just about the event, the moment in women’s cricket that it created was just absolutely incredible. Hopefully what it does for the sport has a flow-on effect.“

Finally, Ellyse Perry said that the entire team acknowledges the impact the finals had on Women’s cricket. The efforts and development put into Women’s cricket ensured that the tournament was much bigger than anything anticipated.

The all-rounder took the time to be thankful for being allowed to stick around for the finals. She thanks her coach, Matthew Motty, and the other members of the Australian staff who let her be around during the finals.
