In addition, she is hopeful of returning with the bowl for the rest of the summer. Perry was quoted by cricket.com.au saying,
“I’ve really enjoyed working with Scott Prestwidge, our bowling coach, and we were doing some really great stuff over in England in the nets, so it was a bit of a bummer to have to cut that over the last couple of months to rehab my knee. To get out back there with Scottie was really fun today. I’m really looking forward to the rest of summer and hopefully being able to contribute with the ball”
Speaking about cricket comeback to Olympics after 128 years, Ellyse perry was excited. She further added,
“I’d love to still be contributing and around the group if I’m still enjoying it, and if I’m good enough to be making contributions, but I probably haven’t pinned my sights on anything just yet (so) we’ll see. I’d imagine it’d be hugely important to every team involved … it’s an amazing announcement for the sport and a great new opportunity and an amazing competition. To be a part of that – we had the experience with the Comm Games really recently and that was a fabulous event to be a part of”
