'Got To A Point Where I Needed To Step Away For A Little Bit', Reveals Sophie Devine
Sophie, 35, had been on a well-being break from the sport since January, which resulted in her missing New Zealand’s white-ball games against Sri Lanka and pulling out from WPL 2025 for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). She will now return for New Zealand's upcoming T20I series against Australia starting in Auckland on Friday.
“It probably just got to a point where I needed to step away for a little bit. Obviously, the last 12-18 months have been massive for me personally, but also the White Ferns group, the amount of cricket that we've played, obviously winning the World Cup and things like that. It probably hit me a little bit harder than I realised.
