Smit excited to get first taste of senior Women’s World Cup

The youngster earned her debut national cap earlier this year and has since played a total of five international matches across the ODI and T20I formats.

During her debut in Sri Lanka, she blasted a composed 39 against a strong India women’s team and followed up that knock with a classy, unbeaten half-century against a star-studded West Indies women’s team a month later.
