New Zealand Women Announce Squad for 2025 ODI World Cup

The New Zealand Cricket Board has announced its team for the Women's ODI World Cup starting in India from September 30. The Kiwi team won the title by performing brilliantly in the Women's T20 World Cup held in 2024, while now their eyes will be on repeating the same performance in the ODI World Cup. While the responsibility of hosting the Kiwi team in the upcoming mega tournament will be on the shoulders of Sophie Devine, some such players have also got a place in the team who will be seen playing in the World Cup for the first time.

22-year-old left-arm spin bowler Flora Devonshire has been included in the New Zealand team for the Women's ODI World Cup, who has not played a single match in the ODI format so far. At the same time, Flora Jones, who was part of the Kiwi team's T20 World Cup winning team, not being selected in the upcoming mega event is considered a big decision. Apart from this, Polly Inglis, Bella James and Bree Illing are three such players who do not have much experience of playing in the ODI format yet.
