The Women’s Ashes 2023 began with a one-off Test on June 22 in Nottingham.
Batting first, Australia reached 328/7 at stumps on Day 1 with Ellyse Perry being the top-scorer.
Perry was looking well set en route to her impressive century.
The Aussie star was unfortunately dismissed on 99 falling 1 short of what could be a tremendous ton.
Perry became the fourth women cricketer to be dismissed on 99.
Here is the list of players:
Former English opener Betty Snowball was the first women cricketer to be dismissed on 99. She got run out in the 3rd Test at the Oval in 1937 against Australia.
Former Aussie captain Jill Kennare got out caught and bowled to India's Shubhangi Kulkarni in 1984 at Wankhede Stadium on 99 in 1984.
During Australia Women’s tour of England and Ireland in 2015, all-rounder Jess Jonassen was dismissed on 99 by Katherine Brunt.
Perry faced 153 deliveries to score 99 runs before Lauren Filer dismissed the Aussie star.
