Great

... their friends, um, after the World Cup for just under two weeks.

And then, yeah, got home.

Which I think when you, you get home and you set back into routine, it kind of hits you, um, what you've done and it's been really cool.

And this next, I've got, like, 10 weeks off now, just full on training, um, no games, which is really nice for my body-wise to get back into it and lead into the summer.

But also, yeah, it gives you time to reflect, I think-

Oh, really? Okay.

And I was ...

Uh, what was Australia's assessment at halfway of the pitch?

Yeah.

Well, um, well first of all, we wanted to bowl first, which was great, and I think, um, we fielded and bowled exceptionally well.

Um, yeah, the wicket was doing a bit in the sense of, well, for me, changeups were gripping a bit, obviously the slope at Lord's and whatnot, but- I think just the way we went about it, I know when we come in after every fielding, um, most of the time Pez, Pez talks in that little chat and just- she's like, literally you're just looking at her like, "Oh my God, it's Ellyse Perry." But, um, no, it's, it's the words that come out of her mouth are just so inspiring and, like, knowing how much trust, and we always felt like we could chase that total.

We always, um, yeah, knew we can do it and believed.

Um, and then yeah, knowing, I suppose we were really happy chasing 150.

Um, and yeah, obviously fast outfield at Lord's.

I mean, how was it last night?

What's it like as a, a young player, still a teenager, still in school, being around a squad of adults who are fully professional?

Yeah, I think, um, at the start it was a bit challenging considering I, um, still lived in a small town called Bundaberg and had to travel to Brisbane, um, every weekend to play premier cricket and, um, still played with the boys.

But, um, yeah, going from only coming down two weeks every 10 weeks from school holidays and, um, yeah, trying to connect with the team was a little bit tricky.

And obviously bouncing in and out, um, you never ...

Like, I suppose at the end of the two weeks you felt comfortable in the environment and then you had to go home for another 10 and work by yourself.

But, um, yeah, I think the, the, um, environment here in Queensland has actually been really good just to connect with, um, the older girls and keep that gap nice and tight of, yeah, they are obviously older and got more experience.

But, um, then you can jump on the back of their experience and help them help me through the times that they've also faced.

What was that like socially? So going and spending time with adults in a professional environment, and then going back the next week and being at school with teenagers again who, you know, on phones and whatever.
