The final match takes place on Sunday.
England took an unassailable 2-0 lead in their ODI series against New Zealand with a 56-run win in the second match in Hamilton.
After being dismissed for a duck in the first match on Monday, opener Tammy Beaumont bounced back with a stellar 81-run stand to get England off to a hot start at Seddon Park. Once Maia Bouchier was caught by Hannah Rowe for 20, England captain Heather Knight set about building an intimidating target alongside Beaumont.Beaumont was not fazed however, continuing to belt boundaries despite the quick exits of Nat Sciver-Brunt and Alice Capsey.Amy Jones took the baton from there, contributing 48 from 40 balls as England set a lofty target of 253.
Despite a staunch 57 from Brooke Halliday and a blistering 47 off 48 balls from Izzy Gaze, New Zealand’s batters were unable to threaten England’s score, ultimately being bowled out for 196.Comments & Moderation Readers’ comments: You are personally liable for the content of any comments you upload to this website, so please act responsibly.
