Women’s World Cup: You Have To Put A Whole Game Together - We Didn't Do That, Says Sciver-Brunt After Defeat To SA
ODI World Cup: England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt admitted her side fell short in all departments as South Africa outplayed them by 125 runs in the semifinal of the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup at the ACA Stadium in Guwahati on Wednesday. A masterful 169 from Laura Wolvaardt meant England conceded 319/7 before being bowled out for 194 in 42.3 overs.
“What an incredible two innings from South Africa. We weren't at our best today, and to beat the best teams, you have to (be). You have to put a whole game together, and we didn't do that today. I'm hugely disappointed. It'll take a bit of time to sink in, but I'm just disappointed at the moment,” said Nat after the match ended.
Despite the heavy defeat margin, Nat felt England were in the contest for large parts of the first innings. “Definitely. During the Power-play and afterwards, we didn't let the game go too far. We were pretty happy with the control we had, and we knew a wicket at one end, and we could make some inroads, which we did. But obviously, they got another partnership together.”
