South Africa thumps West Indies by 10 wickets at Women's T20 World Cup
SOUTH AFRICA inflicted a 10-wicket defeat on the West Indies in its opening Women’s T20 World Cup match today.
Captain Laura Wolvaardt (59 not out) and Tazmin Brits (57 not out) struck unbeaten half centuries in South Africa’s strong chase of 119-0 after left-arm spinner Nonkululeko Mlaba had grabbed a career-best 4-29 and restricted the West Indies to 118-6.
West Indies tried eight bowlers but couldn’t separate the dominant South African pair as they eased to victory with 13 balls to spare while striking 13 boundaries in between them.
