Nensi Patel to Vishmi Gunaratne, out Caught by Georgia Plimmer!! Oh my! Plimmer almost made a mess. But she hangs on. Relief more than joy in the New Zealand camp. Craig McMillan does a fist pump in the dugout. Tossed up around off, Gunaratne sits down to play the slog sweep and gets a top-edge towards long-on. Plimmer comes in, hands trembling and allows it to escape her grasp but it lands in her lap, then she clutches on using her hands and body. She breathes a sigh of relief.
