Huge Loss for South Africa

The right-handed batter had scored 1,805 runs in her career with an average of 20.98. The batter could have guided the other players and we should not forget that South Africa has the home advantage for the tourney.

It would be interesting to see which batter replaces her as South Africa is currently going through a phase of reconstruction.  With the Women’s World Cup scheduled in February, the team doesn’t have enough time for preparation.  The Proteas is all set to play a tri-series before World Cup between India & West Indies which would be quite crucial.
