Australia all-rounder Ellyse Perry said she still loves waking up every day with the opportunity to get better as she enters her 20th summer of international cricket. The 35-year-old has played 365 international matches since her debut in 2007.

Perry helped Australia win their seventh T20 World Cup title at Lord's in July. She said the game is constantly progressing and she wants to keep finding new edges.

Perry is preparing for Australia's ODI series against Bangladesh starting Friday at Allan Border Field. She returns from her most successful individual T20 World Cup campaign.

CricHubb Take

Perry's refusal to discuss life beyond cricket at 35 sets a template for longevity that younger teammates are now expected to match.
