Jess Kerr to Hayley Matthews, out Caught by Maddy Green!! Finally New Zealand hang onto one and it's Green who takes the catch, having dropped Matthews earlier. Full and angled in, Matthews goes aerial but doesn't really commit to the big shot. It's only a punch rather than a big flourish. Middles it nicely but goes straight to long-on.

Nensi Patel to Hayley Matthews, 1 run, almost a blinder from Nensi Patel! Leading edge pops up to her right, she charges across, dives full stretch and grabs it in her fingertips. It's only when she falls on the ground and the elbows make contact with the turf that it pops out

Bree Illing to Hayley Matthews, FOUR, not the player you want to be dropping, that too twice. Blazes this through backward point despite there not being too much width

Nensi Patel to Hayley Matthews, 2 runs, problems for West Indies as Matthews is holding her right calf in pain. Physio is out there helping her do some stretching. Hopefully it's just cramp. She's on her feet now and looks better. Went down to sweep, got it behind square and immediately charged across for two. Had to put in the dive and then grabbed her leg. All okay now...

Bree Illing to Hayley Matthews, out Qiana Joseph Run Out!! Oh dear, Joseph isn't the quickest between the wickets and she has been run out by a long way. She's not happy at all. Has a few words with Mathews and they even have a mild shoulder barge as she walks off. Full delivery swinging in from round the wicket, Matthews looks to drive and gets an edge that dribbles in front of backward point. Matthews takes a few steps down the pitch, then she stutters and then they both stutter. The mix-up leads to Joseph being run out. Wasn't even in the frame. Qiana Joseph run out (Nensi Patel/Isabella Gaze) 2(4)
