After overcoming a calf injury in time for the competition in South Africa, Alyssa Healy is ready to participate in Australia’s opening T20 World Cup match.

Prior to her calf injury, the 32-year-old had a lucky streak of fitness, and she acknowledged that having to watch from the sidelines had been difficult.

“I’ve absolutely hated every minute,” she said.

“I hated watching the cricket on the TV; I couldn’t be a part of any of the cricket. It’s a lesson for me to make sure I’m looking after myself moving forward if I want to be a part of stuff.”

Alyssa Healy Excited For Women’s Premier League

During the World Cup, the auction for the first-ever Women’s Premier League in India will take place. Healy made his nomination right away.

“I registered basically the day after that news came out just to make sure I got in there on time,” she said.

“I’d love to be a part of it. If I’m not, so be it, (but) I just think the whole experience is going to be amazing for the players to get to go and be a part of that. I sat there at Chinnaswamy Stadium for the first-ever men’s IPL game so the opportunity to sit at the first women’s one would be a really nice moment.”

Women’s players will experience an unheard-of financial bonanza thanks to the IPL, the most profitable T20 competition in the world, and the millions of dollars in television money that have already been committed to its new offshoot.

“It sets us on the precipice of this whole new era for the game,” Australian all-rounder Ellyse Perry said.

“It’s going to be really exciting.”
