Ellyse Perry: A Dual Sporting Legend

Ellyse Perry, a remarkable Australian sportswoman, has left an indelible mark in both cricket and soccer. Beginning her international career at just 16, Perry became the youngest Australian to play international cricket and the first to compete in both ICC and FIFA World Cups. As an all-rounder, she excels in batting and fast bowling, holding records for the highest Test score by an Australian woman and being the first player to score 1,000 runs and take 100 wickets in T20Is. With multiple awards, including the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Award and Belinda Clark Award, Perry continues to inspire and elevate women’s cricket globally.
