The all-rounder scored 43 runs and took three key wickets in New Zealand’s 32-run victory against South Africa in the Women’s T20 World Cup

New Zealand 158-5; South Africa 126-9 – NZ win by 32 runsNew Zealand secured a maiden T20 World Cup title, defeating South Africa by 32 runs after a mammoth effort from the all-rounder Melie Kerr, who was named player of the tournament.

Devine said: “I started to let myself dream a little bit last night about what it would be like to hold the trophy up in front of that team. It’s hard to put into words what it means not just for me but for some of the players within this group and for New Zealand cricket as well – it’s been a long time between drinks.”

Five balls later Bosch – so dominant on Thursday in the semi-final against Australia – feather-edged to Izzy Gaze behind the stumps, and Devine appealed to DRS, overturning the original not-out decision.
