Australian Star Ellyse Perry Backs England To Bounce Back Under Charlotte Edwards As Coach

Published by Webster

Australian all-rounder Ellyse Perry feels that arch-rivals England can bounce back under their new head coach and former batter Charlotte Edwards taking over, saying that the team is a “group of champions”. England Women lost all seven games on their multi-format Ashes tour of Australia earlier this year – a result that was followed by head coach Jon Lewis and captain Heather Knight both stepping down from their roles. Perry, however, is confident that come the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup in India later this year, England will turn the page with new head coach Charlotte Edwards taking over. “If you look at the class of that English team and the players they have, their best eleven is a formidable side,” Perry told Sky Sports as quoted by ICC. “I have got absolutely no doubt that they will be a very different team this summer in England, but also in the World Cup in India.” “They are a group of champions, and you are always allowed to have some tough periods and challenges …

It is really important to focus on playing good cricket as a team, that’s a culture we are trying to set as a team because the fanbase of RCB is such that appreciation and criticism will be a little more as compared to other teams. It is important for us to stick together as a group,” Mandhana said on the eve of RCB’s opening match. “Who will not want people chanting RCB everywhere you travel, …

Published by Webster

Team Australia in action© X (Twitter) Australia will start as overwhelming favourites in their quest for an unprecedented eighth final appearance when they take on South Africa in the semi-final of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in Dubai on Thursday. Australia have now made it to the semi-finals of the global T20 tournament in all its nine editions held so far since 2009 in England.

Going by pure statistic, South Africa are no match for Australia who have won nine out of the 10 WT20I games, with the former’s only win coming in January this year. The head-to-head record at Women’s T20 World Cup is even more intimidating as Australia have won all the seven encounters. The best part about the current Australian team is the core which has remained intact for years now …
