AS SKIPPER DOES STAR TURN
-
A completely out of sorts India were trumped by opposition skipper Sophie Devine's flamboyant batting and tactical astuteness as New Zealand powered to a 58-run win in a lopsided Women's T20 World Cup game here on Friday.
The 'White Ferns' also put an end to their 10-match losing streak with their biggest win against India in T20Is.
On a pitch which was extremely difficult for batting, Devine's power-packed unbeaten 57 off 36 balls took New Zealand to an above-par 160 for 4 in 20 overs.
The 35-year-old Kiwi leg-end then used her slow bowlers to first choke the 'Women in Blue' and then asked her seam-ers to take pace off deliveries blowing the opposition for a meagre 102 in 19 overs.
