A Women's World Cup that began with great expectations for New Zealand has plunged into gloom, with the hosts on the brink of elimination and key players battling injury.
England came out trumps in a thrilling ICC Women's World Cup match against New Zealand at Eden Park in Auckland on Sunday. England Women won the match by a solitary wicket after a sterling comeback by New Zealand had threatened to derail the English chase. However, Anya Shrubsole kept her nerves and got England over the line to keep them in the hunt for a place in the semi-finals. So far, only one team is guaranteed a place in the semi-finals -- unbeaten Australia. England, with their 2nd win in the tournament, climbed to fifth in the Women's World Cup points table while New Zealand dropped a place to sixth.
