Women's T20 WC: 'It Was A Really Special Day For Everyone,' Says Perry After Australia's Historic Win
T20 World Cup: Australia all-rounder Ellyse Perry described her side's record-breaking victory over India at Lord's as ‘a really special day for everyone’ after guiding the six-time champions into their fifth consecutive win of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026 with a match-winning performance on Sunday.
Perry was named Player of the Match after scoring a fluent 56 off 38 balls as Australia chased down 171 with six wickets in hand, completing the highest successful run chase in Women's T20 World Cup history. Her crucial partnership with Ashleigh Gardner, who remained unbeaten on 53, sealed Australia's place in the last four while ending India's semifinal hopes.
Reflecting on the occasion, Perry said playing at the iconic Lord's in front of a packed crowd made the victory even more memorable.
