- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.1 straight up and caught at mid-off. Dottin is gone. Full on the legs, Dottin flicks but it's straight up off a leading-edge, Jess Kerr moves back a step or two and takes it easily. That's a big wicket 16/144.3 Caught at deep cover halfway from the fence. That's an unconventional fielding position but it has worked for the White Ferns. Matthews walks off to a standing ovation. She backs away to slap the slower leg-cutter released from the side of the hand, but finds Rowe in the deep. She holds on and ends a fine knock 220/55.1 another skier and this time mid-off is under that. Knight gets forward to loft the full ball but miscues it, Jonas at mid-off has no trouble in reverse-cupping that. The runs are coming but for the loss of a couple of wickets 39/221.2 loud appeal for an edge down leg and Taylor is walking! Some swing down leg for the slingy action, Taylor looks to tickle it fine, and Martin gets into position nicely to grab it with both hands down leg. Loud appeal and given, Taylor walks anyway 105/333.5 loud shout for LBW, not given and Devine reviews. The googly from Amelia Kerr, pad-first and just above the kneeroll. Impact is in line and it's three reds. So Campbelle has to go. Superb review from New Zealand, tossed up googly and Campbelle is late on the forward defence, the ball spins back in to hit the pad before the bat, striking the stumps and she walks back. Four dots and now the wicket in the over 165/447.4 Tahuhu has her third. Dug in short outside off, gets big on Nation who toe-ends the pull behind the wicket, Martin takes it and the bowler is all smiles. End of a good knock from Nation 243/746.4 good hit but a fine low catch at deep mid-wicket. Full on off, heaved in the air and Green from deep mid gets across and catches it two-handed on the slide, hangs on 234/648.4 Confusion between the two and a run-out check sent upstairs. Alleyne is gone. Cut to the sweeper, Alleyne wanted two and was halfway down for it, but sent back and the throw on the bounce to the Jess Kerr is enough as the bowler takes the bails off, catching Alleyne just short 246/849.6 run-out off the last ball. Bunted into the leg-side without much timing, Mohammed has to go back for the second, is well-short though.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.2 Bates is run-out at the non-striker's end backing up, it deflected off Henry's fingers just a bit. Bates is walking back because she's miles outside, Devine is stunned. West Indies are having a party. Full delivery again, Devine drilled it back and Henry got just a fingertip or two while diving to her right, and that went on to the stumps in no time, leaving Bates nearly a quarter down the pitch 14/144.1 what a catch, West Indies have finally taken one off Devine, Henry has finally taken one off Devine! They're just going to check upstairs though because Henry landed on the ground while juggling, but it looked clean in real time. Slightly full outside off, Devine chipped it back with a little power, Henry stuck her left hand out, there was no time to stretch the other, and she juggles, it pops up, and then she holds on to it with her life, and falls on the ground with the ball firmly in her right hand. It's out, Devine is going back 215/711.2 gets Kerr first lbw ball, what a day Matthews is having! Kerr goes down for a chat with Devine, she knows she's plumb and decide not to review, she walks back, Matthews is leaping with joy. Follows the pretty wide ball to Devine with one on the stumps to Kerr from outside off, she goes back to cover the stumps and try and work this to leg, but she misses the trajectory and line both, struck right in font of the stumps and the umpire gives her out 47/227.6 four dots and a wicket off the last. Dream over for Mohammed. Satterthwaite misses the sweep to a very full ball on middle, went under the bat and she knew that there was no bat, but Devine asks her to take a review and it's three reds. Big celebration in the West Indies camp 123/329.1 and gets one more, right through Tahuhu! The short ball goes right through her. It doesn't rise much after pitching around off and coming in, Tahuhu stays back for the pull and misses it completely to lose her middle stump 131/432.5 taken this time, Green chips a catch straight to midwicket! Full on the pads, flicked away in the air, and Taylor didn't have to move an inch to grab the dolly. Selman, Campbelle and Matthews do a little jig as the music comes on. They're getting close 152/534.4 edged to slip and Anisa takes it with both hands, one more wicket for Matthews! New Zealand crumbling, West Indies roaring. Just short of length outside off, Halliday cuts it late but so late that it's gone straight to Anisa at slip 162/649.2 right in the block hole from Dottin, Martin can't put it away, loud, loud appeal and it's given! Martin also reviews, it's all happening. A dipping yorker right on leg stump, it's hit Martin's back show in front of leg, no edge says UltraEdge, and ball-tracking shows it's hitting leg. Big wicket from a big player at a big time, Deandra Dottin 255/849.4 miscued to mid-off! Deandra Dottin is doing it all here, getting rid of the set batters all by herself when they need to defend five in the last over. Bravely tries the block hole with mid-off in the circle, Kerr wants to hit the winning runs over mid-off but can't clear the fielder. It's the easiest of catches, and West Indies are holding on to them when it matters 256/949.5 one more gone, a run-out at the non-striker's end and West Indies have done it, Deandra Dottin has done it! Rowe misses the length ball and it goes to the keeper, Jonas wants to steal a bye, Rowe is ball watching and doesn't run, Jonas is halfway down the pitch and the keeper throws the ball quickly to Dottin and Jonas is well short of her ground 256/10Extras13 (lb 5, nb 2, w 6)TOTAL256 all out (49.5 Overs, RR: 5.13)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Suzie Bates, 3.2 ov), 2-47 (Amelia Kerr, 11.2 ov), 3-123 (Amy Satterthwaite, 27.6 ov), 4-131 (Lea Tahuhu, 29.1 ov), 5-152 (Maddy Green, 32.5 ov), 6-162 (Brooke Halliday, 34.4 ov), 7-215 (Sophie Devine, 44.1 ov), 8-255 (Katey Martin, 49.2 ov), 9-256 (Jess Kerr, 49.4 ov), 10-256 (Fran Jonas, 49.5 ov)
