Perry also believed Australian women's cricket can again lead the way. She is holding hope New Zealand can tour at the start of the summer as planned,with travel exemptions for athletes between the two countries likely to be applied for some sports.

The 29-year-old is also adamant the Women's Big Bash League should remain at the start of the summer in a standalone window and not pushed back as cost-saving measure.

Keeping the early start could give it rare clean air,with the AFL and NRL likely to finish their club seasons in October and the men's T20 World Cup in grave doubt.

"It might be the case that either the Aussie women's team or WBBL might be the first cricket to start up again. I think there is a lot of scope in that,"Perry said."I was probably a little fearful for this WBBL because of the men's T20 World Cup. I think it probably would have got swallowed in that.
