Fresh from their T20 series win against the Kiwis, the England women team continued their winning streak in the first ODI against the host team at the Bert Sutcliffe Oval, Lincoln, where they won by 5 wickets, with 10 balls remaining.
The visitors won the toss and chose to field, on what was largely an overcast day, with the pitch wet due to rain.
The Black Caps’ innings were opened by wicketkeeper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Adrian-Roger-Kirshaw-Pierson-c42135 it out at the crease and contributed 29 runs,
after which she was caught and bowled by Laura http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Simon-James-Marshall-c90362, leaving the score at 48 for 2.
Captain http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sara-Jade-McGlashan-c88747 (74), established the most
successful partnership of the English side (a 71-run stand), bringing the score to 123 after which Satterthwaite was caught out off Elwiss.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kate-Ellen-Broadmore-c70435 (3) saw the innings through till the end, remaining not out, and enabling their side
to post a decent 233 on the board.
Elwiss and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Anya-Shrubsole-c45269, who took 10 wickets in 4 innings in the T20 series,
and won Player of the Series, failed to shine, taking 0 scalps, and conceding 53 runs to boot.
England’s run chase was dominated by their brilliant captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Tamsin-Tilley-Beaumont-c92692 (12) succumbing to a delivery by
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rachel-Helen-Candy-c83225.
 The visitors were at 156 for 3, and things sped up with the middle order stepping up to the crease. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Laura-Alexandra-Marsh-c72238 chipped in with a substantial 44. Marsh left the team at 230 for 5, but the last two batters,
Brindle (21) and Gunn (2) brought the team to 234, with 10 balls to spare.
New Zealand’s bowling attack was one again led by Morna Nielsen (2-37), who was joined by skipper Suzie Bates (2-34). Candy also managed to claim a scalp, at the expense of 39 runs.
Laura Marsh, who contributed the crucial 44 off 42 balls in the death overs, was awarded Player of the Match.
The 2nd ODI of the series is scheduled to take place at the same venue, on March 3.
