In a dramatic turnaround, South Africa secured a commanding six-wicket victory against New Zealand in the ICC Women’s World Cup held in Indore. This win marked a stark contrast to their crushing 10-wicket defeat by England just days earlier. South Africa, led by Tazmin Brits’ remarkable century, showcased resilience and skill to outclass their opponents. Brits, who scored 101 runs off 89 deliveries, played a pivotal role in the victory, supported by Sune Luus’ unbeaten 81. The Proteas chased down New Zealand’s total of 231 with ease, reaching the target in just 40.5 overs. New Zealand, despite a promising start, faltered in both batting and fielding, leading to their downfall. Sophie Devine’s 85 runs were the highlight for the Kiwis, but their inability to capitalize on key moments cost them dearly. This victory positions South Africa as strong contenders in the tournament, while New Zealand faces mounting pressure to secure a spot in the top four. The match also highlighted Brits’ exceptional form, as she became the first woman to score five ODI centuries in a calendar year. South Africa now looks ahead to their next challenge against India, while New Zealand prepares to face Bangladesh.
