US EditionPerry breaks Test record as Aussies grind India down
- On Sunday at the WACA Ground, Ellyse Perry became Australia women’s team all-time leading Test run-scorer with 1006 runs, surpassing Karen Rolton, as Australia sealed a 10-wicket win over India women’s team.
- After Australia had slipped to 3-58 on Friday, a 128-run fourth-wicket stand between Perry and Annabel Sutherland, who scored a century in 133 balls, put Australia in control amid stifling Perth heat.
- Support from the bowling unit, with Sutherland's 4-46 and 2-15 and Hamilton's 3-31, helped India slump to 82 for six.
- On the emotional finish, Healy declined a final promotion, saying 'After that, I'm excited to just discover who I am away from cricket,' as her teammates Perry and Gardner celebrated her.
- In historical context, Perry now sits 10th on the all-time women's Test run-scoring list and is the only woman with over 1000 runs and more than 30 wickets, while former England batter Jan Brittin leads with 1935 runs.
