For Meso, the call confirming her place in the squad is one she will never forget.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was really cool. I was in Sun City. I was at the Lions’ team building and we were having a team dinner.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I thought my mom was calling me because she said she was going to call me. And then when I pick up my phone, it was the selector. And I was like, oh, if it’s good news.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd obviously I went to the side and then it felt unreal.\u201d<\/p>\n
With her first senior World Cup ahead, the 17-year-old’s focus is not on changing who she is as a player, but on making the most of the opportunity in her own style.<\/p>\n
\u201cI’ve been thinking about it and I’ve been thinking big things. I’ll just say for me, it’s just being the person who I am all the time. I can’t be someone else because I’m going to a World Cup.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust being KB, just enjoying every moment that the coach is giving the opportunity to play, support my team, everyone around me and just play cricket.\u201d<\/p>\n
South Africa will kick off their World Cup campaign against England on the 3rd of October in Guwahati.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For Meso, the call confirming her place in the squad is one she will never forget. \u201cIt was…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":135252,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[4891,5101,64,63,740,5103,58252,43492,44,85,43493],"class_list":["post-135251","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-4891","tag-app-stream","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cricket","tag-highlighted-news","tag-icc-cricket-world-cup","tag-icc-womens-cricket-world-cup","tag-news","tag-sports","tag-womens-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135251","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135251"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135251\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/135252"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135251"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135251"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135251"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
