West Indies vs New Zealand Highlights, Women World Cup 2nd Semi Final: New Zealand beat West Indies by 8 runs, set up summit clash with South Africa

New Zealand saw off the danger of Deandra Dottin to book their place in the Women's T20 World Cup final with a nail-biting eight-run win over West Indies in Sharjah on Friday.

After Dottin's 4-22 restricted the White Ferns to 128-9, the all-rounder clubbed a superb 33 from 22 balls with three sixes as West Indies finished just short on 120-8.

New Zealand will face South Africa in Sunday's final in Dubai.

Afy Fletcher to Georgia Plimmer, OUT! STUMPED! 9th wicket for Afy Fletcher in this World Cup! She sees the batter come down the track and bowls this very slower through the air, keeps it away from the batter as well, on off. Georgia Plimmer is halfway down the track for the big slog but gets beaten by the flight and Shemaine Campbelle behind the stumps does the rest. Plimmer goes back after a well-made 33 off 31, and she is now the leading run-scorer in this tournament. Another timely wicket for West Indies Women!

Deandra Dottin to Melie Kerr, OUT! TAKEN! Deandra Dottin strikes! A small break in play and the batting side suffers again. A big wicket for the Windies as the dangerous Melie Kerr goes without making much impact. This is full and just outside off, Melie Kerr comes down the track to clear the infield. However, she has to reach for it a bit and ends up mistiming it straight to mid off where Karishma Ramharack makes no mistake. New Zealand Women two down now!

20:20 (IST) Oct 18

Oh, dear! That ball has gone straight through the hands and into the face of Chinelle Henry, she seemed to have lost it in the light. The replays show that the ball hit Henry's forehead and the physio is out to have a look. Hopefully, she is fine. A concussion test is being performed but the good news is that she is up on her feet and is walking back to the dressing room with the medical team.

Melie Kerr pulls it but does not get the connection right as the ball flies towards deep mid-wicket. Henry runs forward and tries to reverse cup it, but the ball goes through and hits her flush on the forehead. She is down in a lot of pain and there are a lot of concerned faces around the ground.

Drinks! Despite not scoring a lot, the good thing for the Kiwis is that they have lost only one wicket. They have a good platform from where one batter can anchor the innings and the others play the attacking role. West Indies Women have bowled and fielded well, but will like to pick up a few wickets because as we know teams with wickets in hand tend to score a lot in the death overs. An exciting phase of cricket awaits us.
