Sophie Devine Becomes International Cricketer to Score Five Consecutive 50-Plus Scores in T20Is

New Zealand captain Sophie Devine on Monday became the first international cricketer to score five consecutive 50-plus consecutive scores in Twenty20 International cricket. Sophie achieved the feat on Monday when she played a brilliant knock of 105 against South Africa in her side’s 69-run win.

Sophie, 30, had scored 72 against India last February and followed it up with unbeaten 54, 61 and 77 earlier in the series against South Africa.

With her recent achievement, Devine has surpassed Mithali Raj, Brendon McCullum and Chris Gayle who all had four straight fifty-plus scores to their name in the shortest format of the game.
