Having snapped up a five-wicket haul earlier in the day, Lea Tahuhu stuck around to hit the winning runs as New Zealand Women registered a 3-wicket victory over England Women at Leicester. The battle was half lost for the hosts as they managed merely 178, a below-par total that was gunned down with more than four overs to spare. Maddy Green top scored for the White Ferns, carving six boundaries in her anchor of an innings worth 70.
