Righto, that is me done. Congratulations to England on another fine performance. They take the series with one to play – the teams now head to Bristol for the final ODI on Wednesday before the T20 part of the tour gets underway. Thanks for your company, goodbye.

Victorious England Captain Heather Knight:

We’re really pleased. We talked about dominating and having that ruthless edge. To win the series in the two ways we have, I don’t think it could have gone better. We want to be ruthless, it’s important we keep pushing and keep dominating.”

The bowlers made it look really tough out there, they put pressure on the Kiwis… Bouchier’s century was really special. There were a lot of nerves on the balcony! We know how desperate she was and she’s had some near misses. We knew it was on her mind, so to get that monkey off her back is so good. Top work from Nat (Sciver-Brunt) at the other end, blocking the full toss was the highlight for me!”

The Player of the Match award goes to… Maia Bouchier

Sophie Ecclestone took 5-25 with the ball but the coming of age knock from England’s opener takes the gong. She beams throughout the post match presentation.

On a first professional hundred:

The relief was there and I’ve put in a lot of work. It was great to be out here playing in front of this crowd. To get a hundred is so special. I’ve worked hard to get to this point, it’s taken me time to get here. I really not to get ahead of myself, a hundred is just a number and I’ve worked on that process.”

On support from Nat Sciver-Brunt to get to the milestone:

I was really hoping she’d stay at the other end! It was great to have her in the middle, a calm person to keep me in check. It’ll give me so much confidence, I was hoping to get the opportunity in this series. It’s such an important part of batting – realising you have more time than you think.”

Some profound words to finish:

I’m proud of myself. I’ve struggled to understand the purpose of my game at times and what I give to the team. I want to be aggressive in my own way, and my team-mates have encouraged me to play the way I play.”

Updated

What a story!

England take the series 2-0 with one to play. The only jeopardy during the chase was whether Maia Bouchier could get over the line for her first professional century. She managed it with aplomb with the help of the wily and experienced Nat Sciver-Brunt.

Updated

HUNDRED FOR MAIA BOUCHIER AND ENGLAND WIN!

What a moment! Bouchier on 98, clips for two into the leg side and hurtles the two runs needed to secure the win and rack up her FIRST EVER CENTURY IN ADULT CRICKET (She has one at Under 13s apparently) Brilliant knock, her teammates greet her with hugs and high-fives. A special moment, surely the first of many more to come.

Updated

24th over: England 139-2 (Bouchier 96, Sciver-Brunt 2) Just a single to raise the tension up a notch more… Can Bouchier get there?

23rd over: England 138-2 (Bouchier 95, Sciver-Brunt 2) Sciver-Brunt takes a single to make it eight to win and eight for a Bouchier century. Jess Kerr skids one on and it pins Bouchier on the back leg! Huge appeal… NOT OUT. But New Zealand review. It is mighty close – but stays NOT OUT – Bouchier the beneficiary of the umpire’s call. A couple are scampered with a somewhat shonky lofted drive before a quick single off the last sees Bouchier keep strike. What drama. England and Bouchier both need five runs. Five runs for a maiden international century, and a maiden first class century, a maiden century in adult cricket!

Updated

22nd over: England 133-2 (Bouchier 92, Sciver-Brunt 1) Bouchier takes six off the returning Penfold to go into the nineties. The century is still on - Bouchier needs eight more and England need nine to win!

Updated

21st over: England 127-2 (Bouchier 86, Sciver-Brunt 1) Jess Kerr is too full and is subsequently pinged for four through the leg side by Bouchier. She needs fourteen for a century – England need fifteen to win.

20th over: England 122-2 (Bouchier 81, Sciver-Brunt 1) Nat Sciver-Brunt joins Bouchier who keeps her chances of a hundred alive with a lovely cover drive for four.

WICKET! Knight c A Kerr b Halliday 9 (England 115-2)

Heather Knight pulls Amelia Kerr straight to Brooke Halliday. Too little too late barring some sort of batting abomination/glitch in the matrix.

19th over: England 110-1 (Bouchier 70), Knight 9) Bouchier tickles a single off Kerr. She might have to settle for a red-inker. Oh well.

England will indeed have this in the bag by the time the football starts. Join OBO and MBM don Rob Smyth once we’re wrapped up here in Worcester.

18th over: England 109-1 (Bouchier 69), Knight 9) Heather Knight has other ideas – a horrible full toss from Brooke Halliday is muscled over the ropes for SIX! That really was buffet bowling. England need 33 runs to win. Time for a drink. New Zealand need a large one!

17th over: England 103-1 (Bouchier 69), Knight 3) Amelia Kerr into her fifth over. She can’t stem the flow. A short ball is whistled to the midwicket fence by Bouchier. She has 69 runs and England need 31 runs. Wonder if she’s got half an eye on a rapid-fire ton?

Updated

16th over: England 96-1 (Bouchier 64), Knight 1) Maia Bouchier is in magnificent form! She plunders 17 runs off Sophie Devine’s over to bring up her half century and take a big old bite out of the chase. This is Bouchier’s third ODI half century in just eleven games. She picks up two boundaries on the leg side and two on the off, England need just 46 runs to polish this off now.

15th over: England 79-1 (Bouchier 48), Knight 0) Beaumont was ticking as she stomped off – she was in good form. It was a fumbled bit of fielding that led to some yes/no and Bouchier sent her back once she had committed to the single. I’m sure they’ll laugh about it later through gritted teeth. Heather Knight joins Bouchier, who consoles herself/any guilt she feels by flat batting Amelia Kerr back down the ground for four.

WICKET! Tammy Beaumont run out (Bates/A Kerr) (England 73-1

Out of nowhere! Some indecision between Beaumont and Bouchier sees Beaumont diving full length for her ground at the non-striker’s end. She look short by gnat’s whisker.

13th over: England 73-0 (Beaumont 28, Bouchier 42) Sophie Devine serves up a rank half tracker and is pulled away with panache by Beaumont. The White Fern’s captain is absolutely furious with herself, stomping back to her mark like someone who has just discovered a punctured tyre and a parking ticket.

12th over: England 67-0 (Beaumont 23, Bouchier 41) England rotate strike, even when the boundaries aren’t flowing they are very good at keeping the scoreboard moving. Something New Zealand were not so good at, getting bogged down for long passages.

11th over: England 63-0 (Beaumont 22, Bouchier 38) Sophie Devine brings herself on and tightens things up momentarily. Just a single to Bouchier, a nurdle off the pads.

Enjoyed this pithy tweet from the redoubtable Macpherson:

10th over: England 62-0 (Beaumont 22, Bouchier 37) Gah! A mis-field from Green in the covers gifts Bouchier four more. New Zealand did not need that. Bouchier picks off three more with a drive down the ground for a couple and a nudge to get off strike. Beaumont on strike for the final ball – BOSH! Too full from Kerr and Beaumont is on it like a flash to drive for another boundary.

9th over: England 51-0 (Beaumont 18, Bouchier 30) Fran Jonas into the attack with her slow left-armers. Bouchier has a look for three balls and then opens the shoulders – flicking through square leg with Swiss clock timing and then bunting up and over the covers for consecutive boundaries. Fifty up for England at a canter.

8th over: England 39-0 (Beaumont 18, Bouchier 21) Amelia Kerr’s legbreaks are called for. New Zealand need to do something before this match is out of sight. Bouchier is watchful, showing the full face. A tidy over is taken for a single off the final ball.

7th over: England 38-0 (Beaumont 18, Bouchier 20) Fran Jonas into the attack. She fires her first ball down the leg side, Beaumont spots it early and sweeps powerfully for four. Jonas finds her length and gets out of the over without any further cost. “Can England be ruthless again here?” Muses Nick Knight. I’d say so far, so ruthless.

6th over: England 34-0 (Beaumont 4, Bouchier 20) Too many loose deliveries from New Zealand and they can’t afford them with a paltry total on the board and these two England batter’s in zinging form. Penfold sends down a half volley and is driven down the ground for four.

5th over: England 29-0 (Beaumont 9, Bouchier 20) Bouchier stands tall and drives down the ground for four! Lovely shot. Held the pose for good measure. Four! Too full from Jess Kerr and dispatched by Bouchier. England rollocking along again.

4th over: England 19-0 (Beaumont 9, Bouchier 10) Shot! Beaumont drives Penfold for four through the off side. Mark Butcher on the tv commentary notes how good Beaumont’s balance is at the crease. She’s batting with a real confidence.

3rd over: England 15-0 (Beaumont 5, Bouchier 10) Sprightly start from England. Maia Bouchier goers up and over the top for four runs. Confident stroke, executed superbly. Driven for four. The next ball is caressed through the gap at cover to bring The Mighty Boosh four more.

2nd over: England 6-0 (Beaumont 4, Bouchier 2) Molly Penfold from t’other end. Bouchier pulls into the leg-side for a single and Beaumont plays a lovely drive on the up for a couple. The shot of someone in fine fettle.

1st over: England 2-0 (Beaumont 1, Bouchier 1) Jess Kerr with the new ball, she spears one into Beaumont with her very first ball and New Zealand go up for the LBW! Looks leg-side-ish to me but they choose to review! NOT OUT – sneaking down leg. Beaumont knocks a single to get off strike. She was in sublime touch up in Durham. Bouchier too, who nabs strike with a single off the last ball.

Here come the players – can England make short work of this chase? There’s another England match on later that they might want to get home and hosed for…

I’ll be back to bring you England’s chase in about 25 minutes – time for a stretch of me pins and some sustenance.

Meanwhile, why not catch up on all the county action with Tanya:

That really was some implosion by New Zealand. They were going ok with Amelia Kerr and Maddy Green at the crease but as soon as that fifty-partnership was broken it was an absolute procession for England.

New Zealand 141 all out!

Phew. The visitors are all out, having just lost seven wickets for 27 runs in a 63 balls.

Updated

41th over: New Zealand 139-9 (J Kerr 14, Jonas 1 ) Ecclestone can’t finish the job this over – in fact Jess Kerr hits back with consecutive boundaries! A length ball is driven down the ground and a rare-as-hen’s-teeth full toss from Ecclestone is bunted away to the fence.

40th over: New Zealand 129-9 (J Kerr 5, Jonas 1) Fran Jonas gets her side off the bogey score of 124 with a heave for four into the leg side. Charlie Dean finishes with 2-35 off her ten overs. Her last five overs were far superior to her first.

Updated

39th over: New Zealand 124-9 (J Kerr 0, Jonas 0) Sophie Ecclestone has 5-15. Incredible figures. She really is the best in the world. Fran Jonas is New Zealand’s last batter. It must’ve been a real scrabble in their dressing room in the last twenty minutes. Nightmare stuff.

WICKET! Penfold b Ecclestone 0 (New Zealand 124-9)

Molly Penfold comes and goes! England have taken six wickets for ten runs in the blink of an eye. Ecclestone has five wickets, what a collapse from New Zealand!

Updated

WICKET! Gaze c Nat Sciver-Brunt b Ecclestone 0 (New Zealand 124-8)

Make that five wickets for ten runs! England’s spinners running amok in Worcester!

38th over: New Zealand 124-6 (Gaze 0, J Kerr 0) Jess Kerr arrives at the crease, I can’t keep up with the tumble of wickets here. Oh, guess what…

WICKET! Kerr c & b Dean 43 (New Zealand 124-7)

Smart return catch by Charlie Dean and Kerr’s lengthy vigil comes to an end. A frustrating way to get out after all that hard yakka. England have taken four wickets for just ten runs!

37th over: New Zealand 124-6 (Kerr 43, Gaze 0) Isabella Gaze joins Kerr, the latter looks to have dropped anchor with wickets falling all around her. Can she eke out a semi-decent score, get her side up to 200?

WICKET! Down b Ecclestone 0 (New Zealand 123-6)

Another beauty from Ecclestone! A tentative Lauren Down sees her bails tickled off by a lovely dipping delivery. England on a roll.

36th over: New Zealand 123-5 (Kerr 41, Down 0) Just a single to Kerr, Down blocks out her first three balls from Dean.

Updated

35th over: New Zealand 122-5 (Kerr 40, Down) Ecclestone struck with the last ball over so Lauren Down will be at the non-striker’s end. England circling with intent.

WICKET! Halliday b Ecclestone 6 (New Zealand 122-5)

The pressure tells! Ecclestone should have had Halliday stumped the ball before but there was a rare fumble from Amy Jones. Nae bother – Halliday looks for an escape route with the sweep but misses and is castled.

34th over: New Zealand 121-4 (Kerr 40, Halliday 6) Well bowled Charlie Dean, she stitches together a tidy maiden to keep Halliday tied down.

33rd over: New Zealand 121-4 (Kerr 40, Halliday 6) Shot! Halliday rocks back and punches Filer through point for four. The lissom limbed fast bowler responds with a short ball that Halliday ducks under. There’s a perception that Halliday is a bit tentative against the short stuff. Filer gives a lingering stare but then undermines the intensity with a leg-side wide off the next ball. Six off the over as New Zealand creep upwards.

32nd over: New Zealand 115-4 (Kerr 40, Halliday 1) Brooke Halliday joins Kerr. She’s off the mark with a dab to third.

WICKET! Green lbw b Dean 30 (New Zealand 114-4)

England get the breakthrough! They needed that one too, Green was starting to look dangerous, she looked to work to leg but should’ve played straight. A costly mistake.

31st over: New Zealand 114-3 (Kerr 40, Green 30) New Zealand starting to show more aggression, Lauren Filer drops short and is clubbed away for four by Maddy Green!

30th over: New Zealand 107-3 (Kerr 39, Green 24) Dean has been less threatening on this surface – a dart onto the leg stump is swept away hard to the leg-side boundary for four by Amelia Kerr. Plenty to ponder here for Heather Knight.

Updated

29th over: New Zealand 100-3 (Kerr 34, Green 22) Lauren Filer returns, a good call from Knight – it was just starting to look a little flat from England. Kerr and Green are communicating well, rotating strike well to bring up the hundred for New Zealand. It’s been hard graft but this partnership is blossoming.

28th over: New Zealand 95-3 (Kerr 33, Green 18) Dean tosses it up and is met with Maddy Green’s free flowing blade. Two powerful drives down the ground see a brace of boundaries come off the over as the partnership grows and so to the New Zealand score.

27th over: New Zealand 86-3 (Kerr 33, Green 9) Kate Cross finishes her work with the ball, 1-31 off her ten overs with the ball is a fine return to the fold. Green spoils her figures a little with a fine lofted down the ground for four, a slightly weary delivery from Cross – but she’s done a fine job for her team today.

26th over: New Zealand 80-3 (Kerr 33, Green 4) Just a couple off Charlie Dean as she settles into her work.

25th over: New Zealand 78-3 (Kerr 31, Green 3) Cross once more, Jones up to the stumps in case the batters fancy using their feet. There doesn’t seem to be much intent to find the boundary at the minute – New Zealand becalmed after Devine’s dismissal.

24th over: New Zealand 74-3 (Kerr 30, Green 2) Charlie Dean loses her radar and flings a wide down the leg side that Amy Jones has no chance with, the batters hurry back to pick up a couple. New Zealand aren’t hurting England here on what looks like a decent deck – you’d think 200-25o is an absolute minimum score. That seems a long way off at the moment.

Updated

23rd over: New Zealand 68-3 (Kerr 28, Green 1) Cross into her eighth over. She’s got figures of 1-21, impressively parsimonious on her return to the side. Green gets off the mark with an outside edge that squirts into the off side.

22nd over: New Zealand 65-3 (Kerr 27, Green 0) Charlie Dean, player of the match in Durham, comes on for her first twirl of the day. Kerr laps and dabs, four in total off the over.

21st over: New Zealand 61-3 (Kerr 23, Green 0) Cross called back for her seventh over. Just a single off it. Toddler safely negotiated (a lot of negotiation these days) bare with my whilst I get up to speed.

Updated

20th over: New Zealand 60-3 (Kerr 22, Green 0) Ecclestone in and out with a quickfire maiden. Excuse me whilst I deal with a pressing domestic situation involving a toddler.

19th over: New Zealand 60-3 (Kerr 22, Green 0) Sciver-Brunt continues – Kerr works into the on-side for a couple. A leg-bye off Green keeps the score ticking.

Updated

18th over: New Zealand 56-3 (Kerr 19, Green 0) Maddy Green is the new batter, New Zealand teetering once more.

WICKET! Devine st Jones b Ecclestone 28 (New Zealand 56-3)

Huge wicket! Just as things were looking a bit more comfortable for the visitors too. Devine wanders out of her crease to play Ecclestone and the bowler sees her coming and holds the ball up a little, it turns just enough to beat the outside edge and Amy Jones whips the bails off with Devine stranded. Top bowling, neat keeping.

Updated

17th over: New Zealand 55-2 (Kerr 18, Devine 28) Sciver-Brunt is furious with herself as she serves up a wide half-tracker with ‘hit me’ emblazoned on it. Devine doesn’t need asking twice and plunders for four. The New Zealand captain doing well to put the pressure back on the England bowlers.

16th over: New Zealand 51-2 (Kerr 18, Devine 24) Ecclestone drops short and is pummelled through the off-side for four by Devine. Better intent this from New Zealand after a tricky first hour. Ecclestone pins Devine again, or does she? England choose not to review and – I cannae believe this – they’ve missed a trick again. The ball hit pad first and would have been given out had they reviewed. Once bitten, twice shy twice bitten.

15th over: New Zealand 45-2 (Kerr 17, Devine 19) Sciver-Brunt continues and a rare-misfield from Danni Wyatt at backward point gifts Sophie Devine four. Time for a quick drink.

14th over: New Zealand 40-2 (Kerr 15, Devine 16) Ecclestone is worked around with the field more spread, six runs collected off the over. We’ll have one more over before drinks. It’s been an intriguing first hour.

Updated

13th over: New Zealand 34-2 (Kerr 14, Devine 11) Nat Sciver-Brunt replaces Lauren Filer. On the money straight away, Kerr defends obdurately but can’t rotate strike.

12th over: New Zealand 34-2 (Kerr 14, Devine 11) Sophie Ecclestone replaces Cross. Ponytail swishing as she approaches the crease. It’s a maiden but not without a spurned opportunity from England – Ecclestone scudding one into Devine that the batter defends with bat and pad together. But was it pad first? If so it looked very close. England decide against the review but the replays show it was pad first and was smacking into middle stump. Sophie Devine gets a let off, can she make England pay?

11th over: New Zealand 34-2 (Kerr 14, Devine 11) New Zealand have dug in and now start to counterpunch. Kerr times Filer through mid-wicket for three and then ends the over with a pull for four!

10th over: New Zealand 26-2 (Kerr 7, Devine 10) Devine looks particularly determined in the middle. She doesn’t miss out on some width from Filer and crashes the ball to the fence at point.

Updated

9th over: New Zealand 20-2 (Kerr 6, Devine 5) Amy Jones is stood up to the stumps to Kate Cross. Dot follows dot follows dot… a maiden as England keep the pressure cooker humming away.

8th over: New Zealand 20-2 (Kerr 6, Devine 5) Alice Capsey fumbles a cut shot on the boundary sponge to gift Sophie Devine a boundary. Capsey stares at the offending piece of turf with disdain but I’m not sure she got a bad bounce. Filer rubs her brow ruefully.

Updated

7th over: New Zealand 14-2 (Kerr 9, Devine 0) Kate Cross pins Amelia Kerr on the back pad in front of all three stumps and the umpire gives it OUT on the field. Cross doesn’t celebrate confidently and with good reason – the DRS shows a gossamer tickle that saves Kerr from heading back to the hutch early. For now.

6th over: New Zealand 10-2 (Devine 0, Kerr 1) Brilliant over from Filer. England looking to prise their way into the middle order, Captain Sophie Devine arrives at the crease looking full of purpose. She needs to be, her side are in some strife.

WICKET! Bates c Jones b Filer 5 (New Zealand 10-2)

One brings two and it is the big wicket of Suzie Bates! A short-ish ball from Filer is shanked straight up in the air by Bates on the attempted pull. Beaten for pace, not a great shot by the batter in truth. The pressure and the tacky surface proving tricky for New Zealand at the minute.

5th over: New Zealand 8-1 (Bates 4, Kerr) A wicket maiden from Cross. Amelia Kerr arrives at the crease to join Suzie Bates under leaden skies.

WICKET! Plimmer c Dean b Cross 3 (New Zealand 8-1)

Fifteen dots and counting… the pressure tells! Cross goes slightly fuller and Plimmer goes to drive but ends up plinking to Charlie Dean at cover. England have their first!

Updated

4th over: New Zealand 8-0 (Bates 4, Plimmer 3) Filer looks in good rhythm here, her speed is up at 73/74 mph and the dots building as New Zealand can’t rotate the strike. A thorough examination so far.

3rd over: New Zealand 8-0 (Bates 4, Plimmer 3) Cross is into her work now, landing it on a handkerchief outside off. Giving the Georgia Plimmer defence a working over. A probing maiden.

2nd over: New Zealand 8-0 (Bates 4, Plimmer 3) Lauren Filer is given the nod. She was a handful up in Durham, the extra pace giving the New Zealand batters a hurry on. Close! Filer spears into Plimmer’s front pad but a tickle of an inside edge saves her from being stone dead LBW. Plimmer then gets off the mark with another inside edge into the leg-side and they scamper three runs. A tidy over from Filer first up

1st over: New Zealand 5-0 (Bates 4, Plimmer 0) Cross starts with a leg-side wide that Amy Jones does well to pluck off her toes. Not a lot of bounce or carry on first glance. Shot! Bates drives down the ground for four to open the Kiwi account. Cross finds her radar and beats the bat with a beauty that nips away late.

Enjoyed this chat with Amy Jones, she is terrific with the gloves.

Righto – Kate Cross has the new ball in her hand. Top knot in place. She’s going to hustle in with the new ball under cloudy skies. Suzie Bates and Georgia Plimmer are opening up for New Zealand. Let’s play!

Our very own Tanya Aldred is in Southport where Lancashire’s Jimmy Anderson and new Test call up – Notts’ Dillon Pennington are playing against each other. Worth keeping an eye on that one – a handing of the torch of sorts.

Updated

We’ve got five minutes before play gets underway in Worcester. Just enough time to catch up with the movings and shakings announced in the men’s first Test squad of the summer:

Teams:

England: Tammy Beaumont, Maia Bouchier, Heather Knight (c), Nat Sciver-Brunt, Danni Wyatt, Amy Jones (wk), Alice Capsey, Charlie Dean, Sophie Ecclestone, Kate Cross, Lauren Filer

New Zealand: Suzie Bates, Georgia Plimmer, Amelia Kerr, Sophie Devine (capt), Maddy Green, Brooke Halliday, Lauren Down, Isabella Gaze (wk), Jess Kerr, Molly Penfold, Fran Jones

England have gone for a more seamer based attack than at Durham – Kate Cross and Alice Capsey come in for Lauren Bell and Sarah Glenn.

For New Zealand – Lauren Down comes in for Hannah Rowe.

Updated

ENGLAND WIN THE TOSS AND BOWL

Heather Knight calls correctly and sticks them in, she seems steely but confident.

“There might be a little bit in it (the pitch), a little bit of softness, little bit of live grass,”

“We’re really pleased with how ruthless and dominant we were (in Durham)... hopefully we can do the same again.”

Sophie Devine admits she would have had a bowl first too. Her side neat to step it up a notch or three today in Worcester.

“One game doesn’t define us, we’ve done a lot of hard work and still have a lot of confidence in what we’re doing”

Teams incoming – a few changes for each side…

Updated

Preamble

Hello, good morning and welcome to the OBO of England v New Zealand from the dreamy spires of Worcester. The White Ferns took one hell of a pasting on Thursday from an England side who delivered emphatically on their Russell Crowe* as Maximus in Gladiator ‘Inspire and Entertain’ mantra.

Heather Knight’s side ran through New Zealand’s batting card like a hot knife through blancmange in Durham. Bowling them out for 156 and then making short work of the chase – Tammy Beaumont and Maia Bouchier each blitzing rapid fifties to knock off the meagre total at a canter. Beaumont batted through unbeaten, finishing on 76* as England ran out winners by 9 wickets with a lot of overs unused.

Can Sophie Devine’s side get back into the series? We’ll find out in a little over half an hour. I’ll be back to bring you news of the teams and the toss. Please do whang a missive into the OBO mailbag if you are tuning in.

*I saw the big fella was getting his warble on at Glastonbury. Are you not entertained? Well, sort of. Three stars, apparently.
