Selected in the Dutch squad for the 1988 World Cup in Australia, Eveleens played in four of a possible eight matches, including the tournament opener against Australia.[1] An all-rounder who batted in the lower order and bowled only occasionally at the World Cup, she did not score her first international runs until her fourth match, having made ducks in her first three innings.[2] Her first (and only) international wicket came in her third match, against Ireland, where she finished with 1/28 from six overs after trapping Sonia Reamsbottom leg before wicket.[3] Eveleens played her final ODIs for the Netherlands at the 1989 European Championship in Denmark, featuring in her team's game against Denmark and Ireland. However, she played little part, making another duck in her only innings and not being called upon to bowl at all.[1] Eveleens finished her ODI career with a batting average of 0.40, having scored ducks in four of her five innings. From the 15 overs she bowled, she conceded 88 runs, an economy rate of 5.86 (or close to one run per ball bowled).[4]
