Australia are the No. 1 team in both ODI and T20I cricket and will play six white-ball matches in the next two weeks. They will face Bangladesh in three ODIs before taking on New Zealand in three T20Is. The first ODI will be played on October 9 at Allan Border Field in Brisbane. Earlier, Ashleigh Gardner finally breaks silence on affair controversy, says "my reputation.....".
Ellyse Perry feels this is a missed opportunity for women’s cricket in Australia. The veteran all-rounder believes that regular home matches during the busiest part of the cricket season could help bring more fans to the stadiums and grow the game further in the country.
WPL has crept into the January window: Ellyse Perry
Australia’s Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) and India’s Women’s Premier League (WPL) cause the major problem in scheduling. The WBBL will run from October 29 to December 5, while the WPL is scheduled from January 14 to February 7.
Perry further shared, “The WPL has crept into the January window, which for me is the height of the Australian summer. For there not to be an opportunity for the Australian team to play in that window feels really sad in a lot of senses. It’s an amazing privilege to play overseas in different countries … but I don’t think anything resonates quite the same as being able to represent your country in front of your own fans.”
Ellyse Perry calls for big changes in Women’s Cricket scheduling
She also feels women’s cricket should also have matches on Boxing Day and New Year. She further explained her concern by saying, “It’s going to be really important going forward to be proactive about how we see the game and how we schedule it and not go down the same path or follow the same blueprint as men’s cricket.”
Perry signed off by saying, “Something like that doesn’t exist for the women’s team … and so it’s really increasingly hard year-to-year if it’s a little bit patchworky as to when we play. That’s not to say there isn’t effort to do that. It’s just such a convoluted schedule.”
