New Zealand beat England by seven wickets in third women’s ODI – as it happened

my thoughts on those clear, so I hope we’re starting to see the end of that trend.

Another great innings from Amy Jones is what really kept England in the match today, will it be enough for the win?

Well, what an interesting innings! Plenty of ups and downs for both teams – England had some strong partnerships – Knight and Sciver-Brunt and then Dean and Jones – but New Zealand found a way to keep fighting their way back into the game and taking wickets. New Zealand were all out for 196 in the last game and 207 in the game before, so they have the runs in them, but only just. England will be disappointed in their batting, but will feel that their bowling can get them over the line here if they do everything right. It’s certainly game on in Hamilton!

Turns out Jess Kerr had another over left, so I pre-empted that ‘all spin from here’ thing and Kerr wanted to really make me pay for forgetting that she had an over left by taking a wicket. It’s a good length ball that Ecclestone goes after slogging, but it’s straight up in the air and Green catches it easily at long on.
