England Women v New Zealand Women – ICC Women's World Twenty20 2012 (1st Semi-Final) – Live Score and Match Update – England Women restrict New Zealand Women to 93
Playing for a spot in the final of the ongoing http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Amy-Ella-Satterthwaite-c44145’s promising innings in the bud, to restrict the Kiwi Women to a final total of 93, in the semi-final currently being played at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo today on October 4.
The New Zealand and England Women are currently battling it out at the R Premadasa, prior to the men’ World T20 semi-final between http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 Women tomorrow.
Looking to reclaim the title they won in 2009, the England Women won the toss and elected to field first, going in with an unchanged line-up. The team’s bowlers then went on to justify the decision, bowling a slew of suffocating spells which served both the purposes of claiming wickets and restricting the run flow.
The New Zealand Women opened their innings with skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Danielle-Nicole-Wyatt-c52365 (3-0-15-2) in the 6th over, with the team struggling for runs at 17 for 2.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Danielle-Hazell-c52362 gave away 18 in 4.
Satterthwaite appeared to be New Zealand’s last hope, but Colvin eliminated the threat before it grew too large for England to handle, sending Satterthwaite packing in the 15th over, with the Kiwi Women at 57 for 5.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Christopher-Alroy-Martin-c50714 was dismissed by Wyatt in the final over.
With 8 wickets down, and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754 Women were restricted to a paltry final score of 93 by the end of 20 overs.
The England Women now appear to have the upper hand, after having restricted their opponents to a low, manageable total. However, keeping in mind the success England’s spinners have had on the surface at the R Premadasa, New Zealand will be looking to make full use of spinner http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Erin-Margaret-Bermingham-c56183, who is currently the joint highest wicket-taker in the competition.
