New Zealand captain Sophie Devine chose to focus on the positives after her team’s loss to Australia in their ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup opener in Indore, praising the fight and resilience shown by her side in the face of adversity.
New Zealand suffered an 89-run loss to Australia. Devine stood tall in the face of adversity with a sensational century that gave New Zealand’s tough chase some life in the second innings.
“Just happy with the fight this team showed, a couple of years ago we would have thrown the towel in pretty early. It shows the mindset of the group that we stay in the fight. I’m incredibly proud that, well I was probably a little bit slow towards the end getting a bit tired and things, but I know every one of our players wants to be contributing throughout the full 100 overs.”
