Perry, still ODI cricket’s No 1-ranked allrounder, had taken a couple of key early wickets in the Australians’ opening-game win last Friday and this time, in her first knock in a T20I since October 2021, she came to her side’s aid early on. But the 32-year-old Perry, back in the fold after missing out on T20 selection at the Ashes and Commonwealth Games, reminded everyone why she is one of Australia’s all-time greats as she wrested back the initiative, racing to her 50 off 33 balls.
