Women’s T20 WC: Victory Over India Set Tone For Winning The Title, Says Devine
After New Zealand: After New Zealand got its first-ever Women’s T20 World Cup title with a 32-run win over South Africa, captain Sophie Devine said their dominating 58-run victory over India was the game which set the tone for them to go all the way to the trophy at the Dubai International Stadium.
New Zealand had come into the tournament on the back of losing 10 successive T20Is, but punched firmly above their weight to win the 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup. "It's really hard to pinpoint one moment or one game. Probably most recently is that India game, though. It was probably the most complete performance we've had since the World Cup in South Africa and everything did come together."
"As I said, it showed that belief and confidence in this group, and to put it together and to know that we could do it, I think was a massive moment for us and helped us on our journey to being here tonight with this (trophy) in front of us. So hard to pinpoint because there's so much that goes into it."
