Her best figures of 3/14 and average of 5 underpin a disciplined bowling display, stifling the opposition and maintaining an economy rate of slightly over 3.

Leigh-Marie Visser grabbed attention for Namibia, picking up 3 wickets in a single game. Conceding just 10 runs across her 4-over spell, she boasted an extraordinary average of 3.33 and economy of 2.5—the tournament’s best figures for efficiency. Her role as breakthrough bowler has provided early momentum for her side.
