England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt has expressed her desire to continue competing in major cricket tournaments despite England's recent defeat against Australia in the Women’s Twenty20 World Cup final. Australia clinched victory by seven wickets at a packed Lord's, chasing down the target of 151 effortlessly.
Sciver-Brunt, 33, showcased her perseverance throughout the tournament, playing through a calf injury to score a vital 75 in the semi-final against South Africa. Although she added another fifty in the final, her efforts fell short of steering England to victory.
