Women’s T20 WC: 'The Only Way Is Up' - How Babette De Leede And Netherlands Reached The Mega Event
T20 World Cup: There is a moment Babette de Leede still replays in her mind while preparing for the side’s first-ever Women’s T20 World Cup. Earlier this year in Kirtipur, Nepal, the Netherlands were confident of chasing down the USA's 129 at the global qualifier. A win would help them qualify for the mega event in England and Wales, but then the skies opened.
In their entire time in Nepal, the Dutch had not seen a drop of rain. But when it mattered most, the heavens intervened. Fortunately, the Netherlands were 90/2 in 12 overs, courtesy of Heather Seager's 28 off 12 balls and Phebe Molkenboer's 46 not out, and comfortably ahead of the DLS score by 21 runs.
When rain showed no sign of relenting, the umpires approached Babette and told her the game was done - the Netherlands had won via DLS method and sealed their ticket to the Women's T20 World Cup - a pursuit which had begun well over a decade ago. On hearing the news, Babette stood there, frozen, unsure whether to turn around to her teammates, start screaming, or shake hands first.
