Ellyse Perry has been hailed for more inspirational words and deeds, underlining her cricketing greatness again as Australia powered into the T20 World Cup semi-finals by knocking out their fiercest rivals, India, with a six-wicket trouncing at Lord's.
The allrounder, seen by many as women's cricket's 'GOAT' and still flourishing at 35, struck a superb fifty and shared in a 100-run stand off just 59 balls with fellow half-centurion Ash Gardner, as Australia pulled off the highest successful chase in the global tournament's history on Sunday.
Sophie Molineux's side earned their fifth-straight win to set up a semi-final across London at the Oval on Tuesday (Wednesday AEST) against the West Indies, and there was no hiding the feeling it was a measure of revenge after India had dethroned them as ODI champs in last year's semi-final.
