Kapp put up a record-breaking performance with the ball and picked up a five-wicket haul, dismissing England\u2019s dangerous batters Amy Jones, Heather Knight, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Sophia Dunkley and Charlie Dean. With that, she also surpassed former India pacer Jhulan Goswami to become the leading wicket-taker in the history of the tournament with 44 scalps to her name.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Goswami, who last played the 2022 edition of the tournament before retiring from all formats of the game, finished her career with 43 wickets in the global ODI tournament.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Sharing a message on social media, Kapp posted a picture with a quote that read, \"It\u2019s not luck or coincidence, it\u2019s God.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Speaking of the game, skipper Laura Wolvaardt\u2019s whirlwind knock dominated South Africa\u2019s first innings as she led the team from the front and notched up a brilliant century. Putting up a case for the team and avenging their loss to England from the group stage games, where the Proteas were dismissed for a paltry 69, Wolvaardt finished with a massive 169 in 143 deliveries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Wolvaardt\u2019s knock was studded with 20 fours and six maximums as the team finished with a total of 319\/7 in their 50-over quota.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After the game, Wolvaardt realised her childhood dream by scoring a brilliant century and captaining South Africa to their first ICC Women\u2019s Cricket World Cup final. \"It stills feels a bit unreal. This is something you dream about as a kid, getting a century in a World Cup. It is a very special day and I am so glad we won in the end.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Captain Nat Sciver-Brunt (64) and Alice Capsey (50) offered resistance but the damage had been done and Kapp returned to take three more scalps and seal the Proteas\u2019 progress as Englishwomen were held to 194\/10.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
