South Africa's Wolvaardt Becomes Highest Run-getter In Single Edition Of Women's World Cup
DY Patil Stadium: South Africa captain Laura Wolvaardt etched her name in history even before the end of their Women's ODI World Cup final against India at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Sunday.
Wolvaardt, who has been in sublime form in the tournament, led the chase of 299 in what would be their maiden title in the format. In the process, she notched up her fifth half-century of the event and became the highest run-getter in the single edition of the tournament's history.
The Proteas Women batter leapfrogged Australia captain Alyssa Healy's record of 509 runs in the 2021/22 edition in New Zealand, where the latter averaged 56.55.
