Perry made history as the first Australian woman to reach 350 games, celebrating her 20th year at the highest level. Only two women have played more international matches: Harmanpreet Kaur, India’s captain, who extended her record to 357 after the third T20I, and New Zealand's Suzie Bates with 355, making Perry the most capped Aussie.
Australia's most-capped players after Perry are current ODI and Test captain Alyssa Healy with 295 appearances, and former vice-captain Alex Blackwell with 252 appearances.
Healy, however, has announced that she will retire from international cricket after next month’s day-night Test against India, which begins on March 6.
Meanwhile, Megan Schutt has yet to make any long-term commitments, focusing solely on the upcoming T20 World Cup. In contrast, Perry, speaking to reporters ahead of the Adelaide T20I, said she doesn't have a set timeline for her future in international cricket."(I've got) no particular landmarks really on my radar. I just want to keep experiencing what this team is doing, and for as long as I'm contributing to that, and find fulfillment in that, then I'd love to be around, but I don't really have an end point.
There's always exciting things on the horizon, but we'll just see where it gets to,” Perry was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au.Healy, however, has announced that she will retire from international cricket after next month’s day-night Test against India, which begins on March 6.
