Lea Tahuhu has recently announced her retirement from ODIs, while continuing to play in T20Is for New Zealand. She leaves as the White Ferns’ all-time leading ODI wicket-taker with 125 wickets from 103 ODIs, and is expected to help defend New Zealand’s T20 World Cup title in England later this year. Her focus now is on contributing in the T20 format and sustaining her involvement in franchise cricket around the globe.[1][2][4]
Key points:
- ODI retirement announced in March 2026; ODI career span: 2011–2025, 125 wickets in 103 matches.[2][1]
- Continues for White Ferns in T20Is; part of the 2024 T20 World Cup-winning campaign; aiming to defend the title in England.[4][1]
- Notable profile highlights include being considered among the world’s fastest bowlers and a regular ICC ODI Team of the Year pick in 2023.[1]
