Kayla Reyneke is named team captain after taking 11 wickets, while Jemma Botha – who hit a crucial 37 off 24 balls in the semi-final against Australia – is chosen to open alongside Trisha. Fast bowler Nthabiseng Nini is selected as the 12th player.
England, who were beaten by India in the second semi-final, have two players selected in Davina Perrin – the tournament’s second-highest run-scorer with 176 – and wicket-keeper Katie Jones.
Australia’s Caoimhe Bray is at number five, with the middle-order is completed by Nepal’s skipper and all-rounder Puja Mahato, who scored 70 runs and took nine wickets – including four for nine against Malaysia.
