Davina Perrin reflects on T20 World Cup omission after injury setback
Summary

Davina Perrin expressed acceptance regarding her omission from England's Women’s T20 World Cup squad, a decision further complicated by a hamstring strain that will sideline her for several weeks. The 19-year-old, who had a standout 42-ball century in The Hundred last year, acknowledged her performance in the Big Bash League and a recent intra-squad series did not meet the team's expectations. Following her exclusion, she sustained a hamstring injury during training, which she noted happened while jogging to prevent a boundary. Perrin is now focused on her recovery and aims to return for The Hundred this summer with Birmingham Phoenix.
