Ellyse Perry is heading home to New South Wales

Ellyse Perry’s homecoming to New South Wales marks a significant moment in Australian domestic cricket — and adds even more firepower to the reigning WNCL champions. 🏠 Back in Blue After Six Years Perry's return to the NSW Breakers comes after six impactful seasons with Victoria, where she: Played 20 WNCL matches (limited due to Australia duties), Scored 1052 runs at a stunning average of 75.14, and Took 13 wickets. Despite limited appearances, her influence at Victoria was immense. And while her playing time for NSW will also be sporadic — especially with the ODI World Cup and India’s multi-format tour on the horizon — her return is still a massive boost for a side looking to build on last season’s success. 🗣️ Perry on Her Return: "I'm really looking forward to being back in Sydney and closer to my family and longtime friends... I feel very fortunate to be walking back into a world class program." 🧠 NSW’s Take: Leah Poulton, Head of Female Elite Cricket at CNSW, summed it up perfectly: “Pez' professionalism, experience, and approach to the game make her an incredible asset to any team.” 🔜 What's Next for Perry? July: Set to play for Hampshire in county cricket. August: Joins Birmingham Phoenix for The Hundred. September: Preps with Australia for the ODI World Cup via a series against India. Even in a season of limited WNCL appearances, Perry’s return symbolizes a strengthening of NSW’s core — and adds a mentor-figure for a new wave of young Breakers.
