Women’s World Cup: Hopefully, South Africa Can Turn The Tide This Time, Says Paul Adams
ODI World Cup: Led by the prolific Laura Wolvaardt and powered by veteran Marizanne Kapp, South Africa stand on the brink of history – of winning their first-ever Women’s ODI World Cup title. Sunday’s final against India at the Dr. DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai offers them a chance to shed the nearly tag that has followed them after being runners-up in two T20 World Cups.
