PAK-W vs NZ-W Live Cricket Score

8.5 OUT! TAKEN! Nashra Sundhu strikes again! Another important wicket for Pakistan Women as they get rid of both the set batters now. This is slower through the air, full and around middle, Suzie Bates looks to take it on and goes for the big slog, but she fails to get underneath it fully and hits it from the bottom part of the bat. As a result, she only gets the height, not the distance, the ball goes in the air towards long on where Nida Dar runs forward and takes a good catch. Bates falls for 28 off 29 and the Kiwis are feeling the pressure of the big game now! 50/2

6.3 OUT! TAKEN! Nashra Sundhu draws first blood! Pakistan Women strikes straight after the Powerplay here and they needed this wicket badly. This is a flighted delivery, full and around off, keeps it out of the arc of the batter. Georgia Plimmer skips down the track to slog it away but fails to reach for it fully and only manages a top edge. The ball flies up in the air and Fatima Sana Khan at extra covers settles under it and after fumbling twice finally grabs it. The Kiwis lose their first! 41/1

11.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Omaima Sohail gets the big fish! Floated, full, on middle and off. Kerr shimmies down and looks to clear the mid-wicket fielder but does not get enough elevation and gets caught by Fatima Sana Khan near the circle. A huge blow for the White Ferns as their in-form batter departs cheaply. 58/3

18.1 OUT! TAKEN! Pakistan Women finally hold onto a catch! Floated, full, at the stumps. Sophie Devine shimmies down the pitch and looks to clear long on boundary but she fails to get the desired connection and gets taken near the boundary by Fatima Sana Khan. New Zealand Women have lost half their side as the skipper perishes. 96/5

18 OUT! STUMPED! Nashra Sundhu finishes with a three-fer. Tosses it around off and gets it to turn past the leg pole. Brooke Halliday advances to hack it away but misses and Muneeba Ali Siddiqi behind the stumps, does the rest. New Zealand Women lose another. 96/4

20 OUT! Fatima Sana Khan makes amends with the catch. Flighted, full, at the stumps. Maddy Green advances and lofts it straight to Fatima Sana Khan at the long on boundary. She holds onto the catch and New Zealand Women finish on 110 for 6. 110/6

2.4 OUT! BOWLED! Lea Tahuhu is pumped! Pitched full and shapes back into the middle stump line. Muneeba Ali Siddiqi looks to hack it across the line but misses and the ball clatters into the stumps. A quick cameo from the opener comes to an end. Pakistan Women are two down. 19/2

1.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Eden Carson strikes! In the air and gone! Floated, full, around off. Aliya Riaz shimmies down to hit over the top but gets it off the toe end and gets caught by Sophie Devine at the mid off region. The move to promote Aliya Riaz does not work as she departs for a duck. 7/1

5 OUT! RUN-OUT! A brilliant piece of fielding sees the back of Iram Javed. Fired in full, at the leg pole. Fatima Sana Khan looks to play across the line but misses and the ball rolls off the pad toward backward point. Lea Tahuhu comes in quickly and gets a direct hit off the underarm at the stumps. Iram Javed is not even in the frame and she knows it. Pakistan Women are four down and in a spot of bother. 23/4

4.1 OUT! CLEANED HER UP! Fran Jonas strikes off her first ball. Arm ball, on the middle and leg. Nips back in sharply as Sadaf Shamas misses the hoick and the ball cannons into the stumps. The pressure got to Shamas and she perishes. Pakistan Women are three down. 21/3

11.2 OUT! TAKEN! The skipper goes now! A good fight showed by her in difficult circumstances but it was really a lone battle. This is floated from Melie Kerr, full and around off, turns away, Fatima Sana Khan backs away to swipe it away but only manages to get a top edge. Suzie Bates at extra covers takes a dolly. Khan goes for 21 off 23 and the Kiwis are just one wicket away from the semis! 56/9

5.4 OUT! BOWLED! Rosemary Mair strikes with a beauty! Slower and fuller delivery, at the stumps. Sidra Amin is deceived by the lack of pace and plays all around it. The ball crashes into the stumps. Sidra Amin walks back for a golden duck. Pakistan Women have lost half of their side in the Powerplay. 28/5

9.5 OUT! STUMPED! Brilliant piece of bowling from Melie Kerr and excellent work from Izzy Gaze behind the stumps. Tosses it full, just outside off. Nida Dar is drawn into the drive and drags her foot outside the crease. Izzy Gaze takes off the bails in a flash and Pakistan Women slide further. 52/6

10.3 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! A soft dismissal and the Kiwis go up in joy! Tossed up, full and on middle, turns in sharply. Omaima Sohail looks to push it with a straight bat but the spin back in means she can only lob it off the bottom edge towards the bowler where Eden Carson dives forward to take a fantastic catch. New Zealand Women three wickets away from the win now! 55/7

11.1 OUT! RUN OUT! Another one bites the dust! Tossed up, full and on middle, Fatima Sana Khan goes down and slogs it away. It lands in front of the incoming deep mid-wicket fielder and the batters decide to take the second run. Maddy Green fires in a bullet throw at the bowler's end where Melie Kerr breaks the stumps. Shah puts in a dive but that is not enough as she is just short of her crease. The replay confirms it as well. New Zealand Women are on the verge of the win now! 56/8

11.4 OUT! TAKEN! THE WHITE FERNS HAVE DONE IT! Melie Kerr wraps things up with her third wicket. She flights it up, full and on middle, Sadia Iqbal looks to go for the big slog but her bat hits the ground first. As a result, she does not get any timing on that one as the ball loops to mid on where Suzie Bates once again takes an easy catch. NEW ZEALAND WOMEN WIN BY 54 RUNS! 56/10
