'Disappointed' Sophie Devine Explains Why New Zealand Lost To South Africa
New Zealand skipper Sophie Devine admitted her disappointment over her side being unable to finish the way they wanted against South Africa in the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup. Batting first at Seddon Park, New Zealand were in a good position for a big finishing flourish with Devine inching closer towards her second century of the tournament.
But with Devine falling to a beautiful yorker from Ayabonga Khaka in the 41st over, New Zealand were unable to get the acceleration in the slog overs as South Africa made a strong comeback to keep the hosts to 228 all out in 47.5 overs. In reply, South Africa overcame a middle-order wobble to win by two wickets and hand New Zealand their third loss in the tournament.
