New Zealand women’s cricket captain Sophie Devine has announced her decision to retire from One-Day Internationals following the conclusion of the 2025 ICC Women’s World Cup.


The 35-year-old, who has led her team since 2020, believes this is the right time to step away from the format.

Devine has been an integral figure in New Zealand cricket, playing in 152 ODIs and 146 T20 Internationals. Under her leadership, the White Ferns secured victory in the T20 World Cup last year in Dubai, solidifying her status as a cornerstone of the team.

“It feels like the right time for me to start stepping away,” Devine said. “I’m fully committed to giving my best to the squad before I step down. This young group has immense potential, and I’m excited to contribute for the next six to nine months.”

While Devine will exit ODIs, she confirmed that she will remain available for T20 Internationals. Earlier this year, she took a break from international cricket to focus on her mental health, a move she also made in 2021.

The 2025 ICC Women’s World Cup will take place in India and Sri Lanka from September to November, offering Devine one final opportunity to leave her mark on ODI cricket before transitioning solely to the T20 format.

Her retirement signals the end of an era for New Zealand cricket, but her contributions to the sport will be remembered for years to come.
