New Zealand all-rounder Hayley Jensen has called time on her international career with immediate effect, bringing the curtains down on an 11-year international career.

Having made her debut against the West Indies in 2014, she represented the White Ferns in 35 ODIs and 53 T20Is. She picked up 76 wickets in both the formats. She was also part of four T20 World Cups in 2014, 2018, 2020 and 2023, respectively.

“Ever since I was 10 years old, I came home from my first cricket tournament and knew I wanted to be a White Fern. To have had the chance to live that dream is something I’ll always treasure,” Jensen said as quoted by New Zealand Cricket.

“It’s been an incredible journey - filled with challenges, growth, unforgettable experiences, and the best group of people I could’ve hoped to share it with. It’s never easy to move on from something that’s meant this much, but I know in my heart it’s time."

“I’m proud of what we’ve achieved together and even prouder to have been part of the White Ferns environment.”
