Counties Manukau and Northern Districts star Brooke Halliday has secured a White Ferns contract for the 2021-22 season.

The Manukau City product enjoyed a superb home summer, captaining the Northern Spirit and making her international debut.

She scored back-to-back 50s upon her call-up to the national side against England, picked up her maiden first class century with Northern Districts and was captain of the side during the Super Smash.

“The last few months with the White Ferns have been pretty amazing and surreal but to be able to top off the summer with being offered a contract just makes the last few months even better.” Halliday said.

“Last summer I put a bit more time into my cricket, working with Rob Nicol and Jo Broadbent every week and being able to get the rewards from that has been great.”

New Zealand will host the 2022 Women’s World Cup next summer with Halliday now likely to take part.
