I captained at the Women’s T20 World Cup last year, but ODI cricket feels very different – there’s more pressure and many more tactical decisions to make,” says South African captain Laura Wolvaardt ahead of the ICC Women’s World Cup, in a chat with ICC media. We’ve lost to New Zealand in a World Cup final, and teams like Australia and England are always strong,” Laura said. Teams like Australia, India, and New Zealand prepare very well, so there’s never an easy game,” Laura said.
