Inn Break
Right then! That is it from the coverage of this game! Things are heating up in Women's World Cup, 2022 and we have another exciting game coming up on Monday, 21st March. West Indies Women will lock horns with Pakistan Women at Seddon Park in Hamilton. The clash begins at 6.30 am IST (1 am GMT) but you can tune in early for the build-up. Till then, cheers and goodbye!
Heather Knight, the skipper of England Women, says that they are just sticking to the tradition of the tournament, and they are relieved to get over the line here. Mentions that the games they have lost have been close and she feels good to get over the line, but they have to be better, and the top-order needs to step up, but the main thing was to win today. On Charlotte Dean, she says that Dean is a wicket-taker and she has come in and done well. Adds that there is a bit of relief now, but they will reflect on what they could have done better. She concludes by saying that they have not been playing their best cricket yet, but they have two more important games coming up.
Sophie Devine, the skipper of New Zealand Women, says that she always wanted to be out there, but she is very proud of her team, and they were probably 20 runs short, and they are gutted but this is cricket in the end. Mentions that they lost three games by close margins, but it is time to reflect and look back on what they could have done differently, but a lot of positives to take from these games. She adds that they also have one last game and they want to give their best. States that they want to enjoy every moment, rather than the highs and lows in the tournament. Informs that her back will hopefully be fine in a few days.
Natalie Sciver is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH. She says she did not realize how much it was raining while she batted, but the rain did change things a bit. Mentions that it's about partnerships and one of them had to stay there and take them home. Unfortunately, none of them did that. States that usually, she is nervous in the middle, but she had to make sure that she did the bulk of the scoring and be out there. Informs that it was tough to bowl in these conditions but the bowlers did well today.
... THE PRESENTATION ...
New Zealand Women gave it their all with the ball and in the field but ended up on the wrong side of the result. They were hit with injuries but the White Ferns kept fighting till the very end and gave a scare to the defending champions. The injury to Lea Tahuhu weakened their attack a bit but the other bowlers kept things tight and it was Jess Kerr who picked up a couple of important wickets, which included the prized scalp of a set batter in Natalie Sciver. However, it was Frances Mackay who turned the game on its head at the fag end as she took wickets in a cluster and brought New Zealand back in the contest. Had they scored 15-20 more runs, things might have been different at the end of the day. Having said that, England Women deserved to win this game in spite of that collapse, as they dominated the game for a majority part.
England Women didn't have a huge total to chase but they did get off to a decent start. Although they lost Wyatt early on in the innings, it was the pair of Tammy Beaumont and Heather Knight who kept them in the hunt. Beaumont perished but Knight carried on in her merry way and she stitched another crucial partnership along with Natalie Sciver. However, England Women lost a couple of wickets in quick succession in the middle overs and they were in a spot of bother. Then came the partnership between Sophia Dunkley and Natalie Sciver which almost guaranteed them a win. However, there was a huge collapse once Dunkley got out where England lost 5 wickets for just 20 runs. Heather Knight and her troops would be relieved in the end as it was a must-win encounter for them.
Woooaaahhh!! What a thriller we have just witnessed at Eden Park! England Women were cruising along nicely at one point but a collapse at the fag end saw New Zealand Women staging a grand comeback into this contest. England needed just 28 runs from 57 balls, with 6 wickets in hand but they almost made a mess of the chase. The experience of Anya Shrubsole came in handy for the defending champions and they are alive in this competition. New Zealand Women, on the other hand, have a very slim chance of making it to the semi-finals, with only one game to go.

Frances Mackay To Kate Cross OUT!
OUT! LBW! What a turnaround this is! Frances Mackay gets another wicket and she is turning the game on its head now! Cross plays for the turn but the ball doesn't spin and that brings about the downfall of Cross. MacKay serves a flatter ball, on a length, around off that straightens after landing. Cross hangs back to block but she misses and gets pinged on her pad. New Zealand Women appeal and the umpire agrees. Cross opts for a review but the Ball Tracker shows that the impact is umpire's call, so the on-field decision stands. GAME ON!

Amelia Kerr To Natalie Sciver
Floated, full and outside off. Natalie Sciver waits for the turn and then taps it behind square on the off side for a run.
DRINKS! Although England Women have lost a few wickets, but they are still well on track. New Zealand Women need to break this partnership. Natalie Sciver is looking in fine touch and Sophia Dunkley has come in and hit a few lusty blows. A few wickets for New Zealand Women can put England Women under pressure. England Women need just 70 more runs!

OUT! LBW! Huge moment in this chase as Frances Mackay gets the prized scalp of Heather Knight! She tosses it up, around off. Knight kneels to reverse-sweep but she misses and gets hit on her pad as the ball spins past her blade. New Zealand Women appeal and the umpire agrees. Knight though opts for a review but the Ball Tracker shows that the ball would have clipped the leg stump. It is the umpire's call on wickets hitting and the on-field decision stands.
Review! Heather Knight has reviewed an LBW decision. Flat line as the ball passes through the bat, confirms UltraEdge. Ball Tracker shows it is the umpire's call on wickets hitting. Heather Knight will have to walk back!
