(On playing her 100th T20I) “It’s amazing. I think to play your 100 T20Is is already really special. To play it at a World Cup against the best team in the world is even more incredible. I’m really looking forward to it,” added Babette de Leede.

“I think we’ve played some good cricket against India and Bangladesh, but not quite where we want to be yet. So we hope we can bounce back today and show some really good cricket,” added de Leede.

Speaking on today Netherlands Cricket team playing 11, Babette de Leede said, “No, same team.”

Meanwhile, Sophie Molineux said, “I think it’ll be a good opportunity for us to get out there. Yeah, chasing last game, it’s probably good to change it up. The pitch looks really good. And seeing it play out last night, it looks like there’s plenty of runs to be made.”

Speaking on today Australia Women’s Cricket team playing 11, Molineux said, “We have got two changes. So Megan Schutt and Grace Harris are out for Ash Gardner and Lucy Hamilton’s playing her first World Cup match, which is really exciting.”
