Women's World Cup: South Africa Batter Laura Wolvaardt Praises Shabnim Ismail For Last Over Heroics Against Pakistan
South Africa batter Laura Wolvaardt praised the efforts of pacer Shabnim Ismail in the match against Pakistan, saying she was incredible in the final over. In their second league match of the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup at Bay Oval, Pakistan needed ten off the final over and Shabnim took out Diana Baig with a sliding catch while running towards mid-wicket in an incredible effort of superb athleticism.
Eventually, Shabnim was named Player of the Match for her figures of three for 41 in 9.5 overs. "Shabnim was incredible in that last over -- but it's typical of her - she's such a big match player so not surprised that she handled the pressure the way that she did. That catch was incredible to go from a full run-up and bowl that ball to turn around and take an overhead catch. I think overheads are difficult enough as it is so it was really good from her," said Laura in the post-match virtual press conference.
