In October 2018, she was named in South Africa's squad for the 2018 ICC Women's World Twenty20 tournament in the West Indies.[10][11] However, after the start of the tournament, she was ruled out of South Africa's squad due to an injury and was replaced by Faye Tunnicliffe.[12]

In September 2019, she was named in the F van der Merwe XI squad for the inaugural edition of the Women's T20 Super League in South Africa.[13][14] In January 2020, she was named in South Africa's squad for the 2020 ICC Women's T20 World Cup in Australia.[15] On 23 July 2020, Chetty was named in South Africa's 24-woman squad to begin training in Pretoria, ahead of their tour to England.[16]
