That last over in the semi-final: It was Amelia Kerr's suggestion of "Suzie I think you should bowl" that prompted the turn of events when NZ needed to defend 15 off the final over. The last time Bates bowled during a run-chase, (24 March 2024) England needed 8 off the final over with 4 wickets in hand. Suzie struck twice in that over and conceded just 4 to help New Zealand win their first game of the series. Coincidentally, that was the last T20I game New Zealand won before the World Cup. It is worth noting that the White Ferns lost 10 T20Is heading into the World Cup.
