Devine & Tahuhu Confirm Retirement; Nensi, Izzy Earn Maiden T20 WC Call-up As NZ Name Squad
T20 World Cup: New Zealand have named a 15-member squad for the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in England, with veterans Sophie Devine, Lea Tahuhu, and Suzie Bates set to bow out of international cricket after the tournament, while uncapped duo Nensi Patel and Izzy Sharp headline the fresh faces in the title-defending side.
Led by Melie Kerr, the White Ferns have retained the core of the group that lifted the trophy in 2024, with 10 players from that triumphant campaign included once again.
However, the spotlight will also be on the impending farewell of three of New Zealand’s most experienced campaigners, all of whom will feature in their final T20 World Cup.
