    Sophie Devine has scored her maiden Twenty20 international century to propel the White Ferns to 171 for 2 from their 20 overs against South Africa in the fourth match of the series in Wellington


    The New Zealand captain has been dismissed for 105 off 65 balls.

    South Africa is chasing 172 to win and square the series.

    Meanwhile Black Caps captain Kane Williamson is undergoing a fitness testy to determine his availability for tomorrow's third ODI against India in Tauranga.

    Olympic bronze medalist Nico Porteous is going to recharge the batteries after finishing third in the men's freeski superpipe at the Dew Tour in Colorado.

    The Kiwi free skier is cutting short his season feeling in need of a break after a hectic period since the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.

    And despite failing to finish her debut World Cup Super Giant Slalom race, Kiwi skiier Alice Robinson won't be too downhearted.

    The 18 year old's binding on one of her skis popped out early on the course but her coach Chris Knight says despite starting 47th, she was just a fraction off the pace.
