The Women’s World Cup got off to a spectacular start on Friday morning. In a bona fide upset, West Indies won a nail-biter against the in-form hosts New Zealand, who, chasing 260, needed six to win from Deandra Dottin’s final over, but lost three wickets.
Tonight, it is champions England against favourites Australia, less than a month after they locked horns in the Ashes, plus South Africa against Bangladesh.
