Katherine Sciver-Brunt402506.25133010
Tash Farrant403418.5075000
6.5 to SW Bates, castled! Farrant goes round the wicket and spears the ball in full and straight, knocks out leg stump as Bates aims an expansive drive! Think that was just a touch quicker and it skidded through the batter. Big wicket, Farrant does the job after missing a touch caught-and-bowled chance earlier. 45/1
Nat Sciver-Brunt402917.2584010
17.4 to ML Green, bouncer, Green nicks it, taken by Jones standing up! Short and wide, 69mph/111kph, not far off being above head height for Green, I reckon, but she flashed a cut and got a healthy edge. Jones puts up the dukes and the ball just sticks, wonderful glove work. 108/4
Sophie Ecclestone403017.5094000
14.6 to SFM Devine, bowled 'er! Ecclestone removes Devine with a lovely bit of bowling... Tosses up the arm ball and Devine thinks it's in the slot to whip leg side, but it dips and goes on with the arm, scuttling through the gap to rattle middle and leg!. 90/3
Sarah Glenn402015.0091000
13.2 to AE Satterthwaite, looks to put the foot down but holes out to long-on! Satterthwaite hadn't hit a boundary and she perishes trying to do so, took on the legspinner but ended up hitting it straight to Brunt coming in off the rope. 84/2

BOWLINGOMRWECON0s4s6sWDNB
Leigh Kasperek402536.2582020
6.2 to NR Sciver, steps out and swings it straight to deep midwicket! Not sure if Kasperek did her in the flight, or Sciver just didn't fully commit to going aerial. In the end it was sort of chipped off the legs, into the waiting hands of Hayley Jensen. That's a big blow. 42/2
6.3 to DN Wyatt, oh my, two in two! Wyatt sends a scudding pull to deep square leg! That's a massive moment, as Kasperek picks up the in-form Wyatt. Just a leg-side drag down and her eyes lit up, only for Thamsyn Newton to hold a smart catch back on the rope. 42/3
12.5 to AE Jones, bowled her, Kasperek strikes again! Tossed up nice and full and Jones tried to clear the front leg and go big once more, only to be done by some flight and and drift, and end up dragging an edge into her stumps. Another big wicket for NZ. 97/4
Jess Kerr402716.75125000
3.1 to TT Beaumont, Beaumont tries to come down, miscues to midwicket! Big wicket in the opening overs for NZ, as the dangerous Beaumont goes for a scratchy 3 off 11. Cramped by the inswing Kerr is generating, and it plops to Devine for a simple catch inside the ring. 16/1
Sophie Devine402917.2582110
18.5 to HC Knight, Knight picks out mid-off! Looking for the boundary to finish the over and ease England nerves going into the last... but she couldn't quite get enough elevation on it and Bates holds the catch! Is there another twist to come?!. 137/5
Hayley Jensen2021010.5033010
Hannah Rowe201407.0041010
Amy Satterthwaite3.502817.30104000
19.1 to ME Bouchier, hits leg stump! Tossed up and Bouchier aims a heave across the line, nowhere near connecting as it skids through and hits the target! Tips the balance back towards NZ. 138/6
