New Zealand Women in Australia

That's a dam tight finish, never knew Rolton bowled, but shes dam good at that to go with her very aggressive batting.

Another close game in the second ODI, this one going down to the penultimate ball of the match!

New Zealand innings: 175 all out (Rolls 66)
Australia innings: 176/9 (Sthalekar 53)

Australia win by 1 wicket

Geez these girls sure know how to put on a match. Probably would have had a heart attack just watching these two games. What I'd like to see is what the Kiwis can chase, the Aussies seem to be able to just get to the Kiwis total.

Yet another close game in the third ODI, but Australia secure the series.

Result

Australia innings: 236/6 (Poulton 101)
New Zealand innings: 231/8 (Fahey 69)

Australia win by 5 runs.

I'd much rather be watching this series than the Champions Trophy!

Wow, what an amazing series. I wouldn't think any series has ever been closer, men or women.

I can't believe we have been pipped that many times. Typical!

 

[andrew_nixon]

Well it didn't last!

4th ODI Result

Australia innings: 252/9 (Poulton 68)
New Zealand innings: 167 all out

Australia win by 85 runs

Not as close as the first 3, but still went into the 48th over.

5th ODI Result

New Zealand innings: 204/8 (Pike 4/23)
Australia innings: 205/6

Australia win by 4 wickets.

It really is a shame that such a close fought series is being practically ignored whilst the ICC Champions Trophy goes on.

womens cricket has never been big and I don't think it will ever be big enough to get more publicity than a major tournament.
