    Lavanya writes from the venue...

    So, Laura Wolvaardt is itching back into old habits. She wasn’t allowed the luxury to whip out her cover drives. The minute she managed to, she’s been trying to replicate. It’s making her reading of the line very wonky. Sune Luus had spent much of yesterday centering Marizanne Kapp’s mindset in her innings. She may need to pull a similar shift for her captain too.

  • June 30, 2024 11:34
