• 2nd T20i: NZ, 170-5, bt England, 156-6, by 14 runs

• White Ferns recover from 11 for four to level series

New Zealand staged a miraculous comeback to win the second T20 at Canterbury after collapsing to 11 for four. Their recovery came by virtue of a 159-run partnership from 98 balls between Sophie Devine and Maddy Green – a record against England in T20 internationals.

The partnership rollicked along so quickly that the team of Kent scorebox operators struggled to keep up, with the numbers in the manual scoreboard repeatedly getting stuck due to the 28C heat.
