Kiwi cricket star Kerr says best yet to come

NEW DELHI, Jan 31 (AFP): New Zealand all-rounder Amelia Kerr is the toast of her sport after winning ICC Women's Cricketer of the Year award for a stellar 2024, but says she is far from hitting her peak.

The 24-year-old top-order batter and wrist spinner starred in Dubai last year to propel New Zealand to their first Women's T20 World Cup title.

Kerr was named star player in the final against South Africa, and also won player of the tournament.

Despite her latest accolade this week from the International Cricket Council, Kerr said she had much to improve.
