Danni Wyatt-Hodge celebrated becoming the first English woman to bring up 3,000 runs in T20 internationals with a blistering 78 from 45 balls, while Nat Sciver-Brunt brought up a third consecutive half-century, as England sealed the T20 series with a 36-run win.

England amassed a mammoth 204-run total against October’s World Cup finalists – just the fourth time they have surpassed 200 in the format – and the series win will go some way to restoring confidence among a group of players who were bruised by the vocal criticism of their own premature World Cup exit.
