The Women's T20 World Cup 2024 is to be held in the UAE from October 3. In this tournament, the New Zealand team will start its campaign against India on October 4. Earlier, the team has suffered a major setback. The team's experienced captain and all-rounder Sophie Devine has taken a big decision. She has announced to step down from captaincy after the tournament. After the T20 World Cup 2024, she will not captain New Zealand in T20 matches. Sophie has taken this important decision with the aim of reducing the workload. She wants to focus on her game and also prepare new leaders for the team.
