Women’s World Cup: South Africa's Laura Wolvaardt Equals Mithali Raj’s Record For Most 50+ Scores

By IANS News October 29, 2025 • 18:00 PM View: 382

ODI World Cup: South Africa skipper Laura Wolvaardt added yet another feather to her already illustrious cap as she equalled former India captain Mithali Raj’s record of scoring the most 50+ totals at the Women’s World Cup.

Raj, who marked the 2022 edition of the ODI World Cup as her swansong, finished her career with 13 scores of 50-plus in the 50-over World Cup. Wolvaardt, who was inching close to setting a new benchmark, has now equalled the tally by bringing up her 13th 50+ score during the team’s semifinal clash against England here at Barsapara Stadium.

The 26-year-old notched up three half-centuries in the ongoing 2025 Women’s World Cup group stages and brought up her fourth 50+ score this season in the ongoing knockout game against England on Wednesday.
