CAPE TOWN: South Africa women's top-order batter Lara Goodall eagerly excited for the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of representing her country in the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup that will be hosted on home soil from February 10-26 next year. Lara is especially excited about the possibility of featuring in the opening match against Sri Lanka on Friday, 10 February taking place at the Newlands Cricket Ground, a place the left-hander calls home.

"I don't think it has actually sunk in yet. It's something that we've been preparing for, for quite a while. We have just been preparing like it is a normal World Cup, but it is one on home soil and luckily for me, it is my home ground." IANS
