Australia’s star women’s cricketer, Ellyse Perry will now undergo a surgery that will keep her away from the cricket field for at least six months from now.

Perry pulled off a hamstring injury in the ongoing ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2020 during a game against Sri Lanka while attempting a run-out dismissal. Perry is one of the greatest assets for the Aussie women’s as they chase a fifth title at the Twenty20 World Cup.
