“There’s no point in losing yourself trying to fix what it means to be broken.”
“It has been my greatest honor to lead and represent my country. I am incredibly blessed to lead the team through its transformational years.
There is no doubt that the women’s game is in an exciting place and I look forward to seeing this beautiful sport that I love grow.
“I look back fondly on my career and the incredible memories it has made and would like to thank Cricket South Africa and all other stakeholders for your support.
“Often the journey can be lonely, painful, and emotional, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I’m grateful for what this sport has given me.”
