It was a dream debut for 20-year-old Kayla Reyneke as she produced a star display to lead the Proteas women to a thrilling last-ball five-wicket win over Pakistan in the opening T20I of the series at the JB Marks Oval in Potchefstroom on Tuesday night.
In her first ever game for the national team , Reyneke stunned everyone with a showing that bellied her years, as she struck three sixes and a four in an unbeaten 29 off 16 balls, to get her team over the line, after she had starred with the ball earlier, picking up 2/13 in four overs.
The incredible encounter came down to the last over, with the Proteas needing 10 to win, before they needed two off the last ball, which Reyneke pumped for six over wide long off to get them to 185/5, which bested Pakistans 180/9 in their 20 overs.
