Women's World Cup: Amy Jones hits unbeaten 86 as England thrash New Zealand by eight wickets
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|October 27, 2025
Wicketkeeper-batter Amy Jones struck a fluent unbeaten 86 as England cruised to an eight-wicket win over New Zealand in their final group stage game in the 2025 Women's ODI World Cup at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium on Sunday.
Earlier, England's bowlers delivered a collective performance to bowl New Zealand out for 168. Linsey Smith led the charge with figures of 3-30, while skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt and Alice Capsey chipped in with two wickets apiece, as from 89/1, New Zealand collapsed dramatically, losing their last nine wickets for just 79 runs.
Chasing 169, Amy hit 11 fours and a six, while sharing a 75-run opening stand with Tammy Beaumont, to be not out on 86 off 92 balls, as England completed the chase with 124 balls to spare and sealed second place in the points table, ahead of their semifinal clash against South Africa at Guwahati on 29 October.
