2nd WODI: Amelia’s 179 Help NZ Clinch Record Chase Against SA To Level Series 1-1
Skipper Amelie Kerr: Skipper Amelie Kerr batting masterclass helped New Zealand pull off the highest successful run chase in women’s ODI history, overhauling a daunting 347 target to defeat South Africa by two wickets in the second ODI here at Basin Reserve and levelling the three-match series 1-1.
Amelia scored an amazing 179 not out from just 139 deliveries as New Zealand surpassed India's record for the highest successful run chase in women's ODIs as they chased down the Proteas' mammoth total of 346/6 with two balls remaining.
Walking in after the early dismissal of Suzie Bates, Kerr ensured the required rate remained within reach throughout the chase. She found key allies along the way, most notably in Georgia Plimmer (23) in a stabilising 52-run stand and later Isabella Gaze (68).
