Ellyse Perry - Greatest Women Cricketer?

I rarely watch women's cricket so i can't tell much about her but surely she has to be one of the greatest (if not the greatest) all rounders women's cricket has seen.

Very hard to compare across eras, but it's more likely that Betty Wilson was the greatest female cricketer ever. Imagine a player who could score at an avg of close to 60, take 6+ wkts per match at an avg of 11.8. It seems like fantasy cricket... except that it was actually real. I reckon that Wilson, for her era, was probably like Perry with the bat but a better bowler.

 

In the modern era, I agree that Perry is the best of the age. Where her bowling has gradually decline (although it continues to be deadly on occasion), her batting has really stepped up.
