    A golden start for the New Zealand women in their T20 World Cup campaign... and captain Sophie Devine is hoping their winning run continues

    A golden start for the New Zealand women in their T20 World Cup campaign... and captain Sophie Devine is hoping their winning run continues


    The White Ferns posted a comprehensive 58-run victory over India in their opening game in Sharjah.

    Devine says she doesn't think she's been in a better environment... and her and the other more experienced players, such as Suzie Bates and
    Lea Tahuhu, are particularly motivated for what could be their last World Cup.



    No time to rest on that result, with the six-time and defending champions Australia up next in their first fixture, early Wednesday morning.
