India, April 9 -- Brazilian bowler Laura Cardoso created history during Brazil's match against Lesotho in the Kalahari Women's T20I tournament, as she became the first player in either men's or women's senior T20I matches to take nine wickets in a single innings.

The fast bowler took each of her team's first nine wickets enroute to a monstrous 189-run victory for the Brazilian team, ultimately finishing with figures of 9/4 as Lesotho were bowled out for just 13 in this match in Botswana.

Cardoso outdoes the previous record in T20Is, held by Sonam Yeshey of Bhutan, who took 8/7 in a men's T20I against Myanmar. She also breaks the women's T20I record, a scarcely believable spell of 7/0, taken by Indonesian bowler Rohmalia against Mongolia...
