Kerr carried her outstanding all-round form into the T20Is against South Africa, playing a central role in the White Ferns’ 4-1 series win. She piled up 276 runs, extending a record-breaking streak of 11 consecutive 30+ scores in the format. Her remarkable run also saw her crowned as the No.1 ICC Women’s T20I all-rounder.
The all-rounder reflected on the accolade, outling the impact her contributions made in New Zealand’s collective effort in a successful home stand.
“It’s been a special month for the White Ferns,” Kerr began.
“It’s always nice to be able to contribute to wins for your country but seeing the way the whole team has played, the selflessness and the belief is what has been the highlight for me this past month.”
Kerr’s contributions, both as a captain and as an all-rounder, will prove pivotal in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in England from June 12 as New Zealand gear up to defend the title.
