Though South Africa didn\u2019t enter the final of the ODI tri-series in Sri Lanka, Chloe had a productive month. Though South Africa had a 23-run loss to eventual champions India, Chloe was in fine nick to hit 67 off 43 balls, comprising four boundaries and five sixes, apart from recording figures of 1-46 and taking the prized wicket of Smriti Mandhana.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
But Chloe saved her best for last as she was at her dominant best for South Africa in their final tri-series game against hosts Sri Lanka. Batting first, Chloe smashed 74 off 51 deliveries, including four fours and five sixes, as South Africa posted a huge 315.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Chloe would follow it up by picking her maiden five-wicket-haul \u2013 5-34 off her eight overs as she tore through the Sri Lanka batting order, including taking a stunning hat-trick and guiding South Africa to a 76-run victory at the R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Colombo.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI am really happy with my five-wicket effort and the hat-trick. I was pretty tired most of the time, but I\u2019m happy to have achieved that. You always want to add those milestones to your memories as a cricketer.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI\u2019m glad I finally got to tick that off my list. It\u2019s still a bit of a blur, to be honest. I think the team carried me throughout that day. I was a little bit sick, so that didn\u2019t really help much. But everything came together, and I\u2019m just really happy that I could perform and help the team win,\u201d said Chloe in an ICC statement.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The all-rounder is now aiming to build on a consistent set of performances from Sri Lanka when South Africa go on a white-ball tour of the West Indies, starting later this month, and later play the 2025 ODI World Cup in India.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
