Pakistan (W) vs NZ Women, 17th Match at Taunton, , Jul 08 2017 - Match Result

3.15pm An early end today, then. New Zealand are in third place and India are sliding against South Africa as we speak. In all likelihood, there'll be a tie between New Zealand and South Africa at the end of this game. Which only means that we're in for some serious entertainment later. Thanks for joining us today. See you soon.

Sana Mir: The experience has been quite tough. We know these batsmen have potential but they've not been delivering throughout the tournament so the confidence goes up and down. The bowling, other than this match, has been good. Once someone bats like Devine gets going, there's hardly anything you can do. The spinners couldn't do much with the new ball, like they do when it gets older. Full credit to Devine. Going forward, I think responsibility is the word. Every player has to take responsisbility. We have two games and we have to get good results for ourselves and for our country. We have the potential. We need to bring our courage out. I have belief in them, this is a team that has come back many times from losses in the past.

Suzie Bates: When you have a player like Devine, who can go out and hit like that, it's good to watch. As a group something we really need to work on is [figure out how] to use people like Priest and Devine effectively. We've got 15 players competing for the XI and that's what we want.

Hannah Rowe: It's a pretty great feeling. [making her World Cup debut] I was stoked to get out there. I've been going through a few changes with my bowling, been working with Jacob Oram and it's coming through. I think every pace bowler wants the new ball and I'm certainly putting it in the right areas. Looking forward to more.

Hannah Rowe is the Player of the Match.

3pm Whew. That didn't take long. Just a few minutes above an hour and another destructive chase from New Zealand. It was Priest in the last game with her 90, but Devine eclipsed even that. You wouldn't think that would be possible. she first broke the record for the fastest fifty by a New Zealand batsman, getting it in 27 balls. Priest had made the record - 29 balls in the last match. She then broke the record for most sixes by a woman in ODIs, going past Lizelle Lee who had equalled the record with seven sixes earlier today. Then, she made a run for the fastest hundred which was by Meg Lanning off 45 balls. Unfortunately, there weren't enough runs to get. Satterthwaite was sent out to have a knock, and she did a good job of it. Professional stuff from New Zealand and they scream ahead, looking good for a semi-final spot.
Another abject display by Pakistan's batsmen today. Sana Mir did the hanging around job once again, which begs the question of why she bats so low. Nevertheless, she made 50 valuable runs. This game would've been over long ago if it weren't for her.
