Amelia Kerr Creates World Record With 10 Straight 30-plus T20I Scores
New Zealand Women: Amelia Kerr scripted history by registering the most consecutive 30-plus scores in T20 Internationals, across both men’s and women’s cricket, as New Zealand Women defeated South Africa Women to take an unassailable lead in the five-game series.
Kerr extended her remarkable consistency with a knock of 31 off 29 balls in Wellington after returning figures of 1/32 in four overs to help restrict South Africa to 159/6. Her all-round effort played a key role in New Zealand’s six-wicket win, achieved with nine balls to spare, as the hosts moved 3-1 ahead in the series.
The 25-year-old has now scored 30 or more runs in 10 consecutive T20I innings, setting a new world record. She surpassed the previous mark of nine, jointly held by Sri Lanka’s Chamari Athapaththu and Romania’s Rebecca Blake.
