    ‘Hard To Come In And Get Going Straight Away, Not Sure How She Did,’ Says Wolvaardt On Reyneke’s Batting Heroics

    T20 World Cup: In a thrilling contest at Hamilton on Tuesday, South Africa’s young all-rounder Kayla Reyneke earned widespread praise from captain Laura Wolvaardt after her side levelled the five-match T20I series against New Zealand 1-1 with an 18-run victory.

    Reyneke’s explosive finishing act, three successive sixes off veteran Sophie Devine in the final over, lifted South Africa to a competitive 177/5 in the second T20I at Seddon Park. Though she scored just 28 not out from nine balls, her cameo proved decisive as New Zealand fell short while chasing the target.

    “It was hard to sort of just come in and get going straight away, so I'm not too sure how Kayla did that. That was some really clean power hitting. It is really nice with the ball striking that we have in our lineup and to know that we have power like that still to come,” Wolvaardt said after the match.
