Women's World Cup: Devine, Halliday, And Bowlers Script New Zealand's 100-run Win Over Bangladesh
Cricket World Cup: A gritty batting display from Sophie Devine and Brooke Halliday, followed by a clinical bowling effort, powered New Zealand to a commanding 100-run victory over Bangladesh in their ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 clash at Baraspara Stadium, Guwahati, on Friday. The win marked New Zealand’s first triumph of the tournament, lifting them to fifth on the points table.
After opting to bat first on a sluggish surface, New Zealand posted 227/9 in their 50 overs, thanks to a fighting 112-run stand for the fourth wicket between Devine and Halliday. Coming together after a shaky start at 35/3, the pair rebuilt the innings with composure and precision.
Halliday top-scored with a fluent 69 off 104 balls, while skipper Devine anchored the innings with 63 off 85 deliveries, her second successive fifty of the tournament.
