Women's World Cup: Extremely Frustrating, We Really Wanted To Play Today, Says Sophie Devine

By IANS News October 18, 2025 • 23:10 PM View: 346

Sophie Devine: New Zealand captain Sophie Devine expressed her disappointment after rain forced the abandonment of their crucial ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 match against Pakistan in Colombo, further denting the White Ferns’ hopes of reaching the semifinals.

The match was called off after lengthy spells of rain at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Sri Lanka's capital. It was the fourth washout fixture at the venue and the second involving New Zealand in the tournament so far. Their last match against South Africa was also abandoned due to rain earlier this week.

With this, New Zealand have a very slim chance of securing a berth in the final four of the showpiece spectacle, and the disappointment was visible in Sophie's words.
