'We want to be scrutinized'

Ellyse Perry is one of the biggest sports stars in Australia having competed in World Cups for the nation in both football and cricket, and the first Australian to do this feat.

But Perry believes that even though both sports have "progressed" in their attitudes towards women competing, they will never be fully equal until they are criticised the same way as the men.

The all-rounder has now fully focused on cricket and says her nation's rivalry with the West Indies brings the best out of both teams.
