Why you need to keep an eye on Sophie Devine this T20 World Cup?

Devine’s streak of 50-plus scores in T20 internationals:

1. 72 against India at Hamilton on 10 Feb 2019
2. 54 not out against South Africa at Mount Maunganui on 2 Feb 2020
3. 61 against South Africa at Hamiliton on 6 Feb 2020
4. 77 against South Africa at Wellington on 9 Feb 2020
5. 105 against South Africa at Wellington on 10 Feb 2020
6. 75 not out against Sri Lanka at Perth on 22 Feb 2020

Devine’s record of scoring six consecutive fifties thus started and ended against India. In the World Cup group game between the two sides last month, Devine was caught by Radha Yadav off the bowling of Poonam Yadav while her score was 14. India went on to win the match and Devine’s run too ended at six. That’s however, still two better than anyone else in T20 internationals, both men and women.
