- 2nd ODI: England, 197, beat New Zealand, 169, by 13 runs (DLS)
- Wyatt leads recovery with 63*; Dean’s 4-36 secures 2-0 series lead
The idea that someone could play 199 internationals for England, score two Twenty20 international hundreds and yet never hit a one-day international half-century on home soil might seem implausible. But Danni Wyatt was a living embodiment of that statistic.
Brought into the XI after England chose to rest Katherine Brunt, Wyatt finally broke her drought at Worcester on Saturday against New Zealand, on the same day that she celebrated receiving her 200th England cap. She did so in style, dancing down the pitch to drive Hannah Rowe through cover to bring up the milestone before finishing on 63 not out.
