England win last over thriller to seal series

England Women came out on top in a last-over thriller to beat New Zealand at Taunton and win the Vitality IT20 series.

Sophia Dunkley hit the winning runs through mid-wicket in the final over to seal a nervy victory, chasing down the visitors’ competitive total of 144-4.

Captain Heather Knight returned to the side and top-scored – winning Player of the Match in the process.

Next up is the 50-over Royal London One-Day International series, which comes to The Incora County Ground on Thursday 23 September.
