Cricket: An 8-wicket defeat at the hands of South Africa has ended Australia's hopes of claiming a 4th successive T20 World Cup.
Quest for 4th straight World Cup ends | 01:36New Zealand saw off the danger of Deandra Dottin to book their place in the Women’s T20 World Cup final with a nailbiting eight-run win over West Indies in Sharjah on Friday.
“It hasn’t sunk in yet, still trying to get my brain back after being a bit fried out there,” said New Zealand captain Sophie Devine.“I am proud of the resilience and character of the team over the last 12-18 months.” “It is disappointing for the entire group to go out then now in the way we did, but I’m incredibly proud,” said captain Hayley Matthews.
West Indies suffered an unpleasant setback when Chinelle Henry had to be helped off the field after misjudging a catch at long on and taking a sickening blow flush on the forehead.
