Women’s WC: New Zealand Elect To Bat First Against England In Devine’s Farewell Game
VDCA Cricket Stadium: New Zealand have won the toss and elected to bat first against England at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium on Sunday. The match is also New Zealand captain Sophie Devine's last women's ODI game.
New Zealand, the defending T20 World Cup champions, haven’t had the campaign they hoped for, especially with games against Sri Lanka and Pakistan washed out due to rain in Colombo. Still, there’s added emotional weight to this fixture - it could be the final World Cup appearance for not just Sophie, but also for veterans Suzie Bates, and Lea Tahuhu.
“Looks like a great wicket today. We played well in patches and with the ball we have been good in phases, hopefully we can put those pieces together today. Just want to out there, enjoy and play with a smile on my face. It's been a real honour,” said Sophie.
