Star all-rounder Ellyse Perry's hopes of playing in the first match of Australia's international summer were dealt a further blow on Thursday after she missed the side's practice match.
Ellyse Perry is in doubt for Australia's T20 against New Zealand, more than six months after injuring her hamstring.On the comeback trail from hamstring surgery, Perry sat out the 40-over-a-side game against New Zealand at Brisbane's Allan Border Field. She also failed to take part in the team's centre-wicket practice session on Monday.
Perry said earlier this month she was targeting a return in Saturday's game but conceded she was unlikely to be able to play all six of the T20 and one-day internationals against the White Ferns due to the compressed schedule."If I'm playing I want to be able to play in the way I always play," Perry said. "But it's about managing the frequency of matches that I play.

Police minister casts doubt over consideration of police forces in hotel quarantine | Sky News AustraliaVictorian Police Minister Lisa Neville has suggested there was never any real consideration given to using police forces to guard Melbourne’s hotel quarantine program. \n\n“If there had been any serious consideration of Victoria police playing a significant role in hotel quarantine program, it is my view I would have been consulted,” Ms Neville told the inquiry into the botched quarantine program. \n\nThe minister said she first became aware of the decision to use private security guards, rather than police officers of ADF personnel, during a phone meeting with Emergency Commissioner Andrew Crisp and then Police Commissioner Graham Ashton. \n\nShe said Mr Crisp entered the meeting with knowledge private security would be used, however, could not tell whether it was he who had made the decision. \n\nWhen asked by council assisting about her expectations for consulting on the matter, Ms Neville said it was her expectation that Mr Ashton should have been consulted in the decision making process. \n\nVictorian Jobs Minister Martin Pakula provided evidence on Wednesday morning, saying the decision to use private security was ultimately the responsibility of the Department of Health and Human Services. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
