White Ferns win dead rubber at Lord's

07:44 am on 21 July 2010

The New Zealand women's cricketers have won the last one day international against England at Lord's by six wickets with 20 balls remaining.

Batting first England made 176 for nine before the White Ferns reached the target in the 47th over.

New Zealand began slowly, losing cheap wickets, but a middle-order partnership between Amy Satterthwaite, who made 59, and Sara McGlashan's 65 not out, saw the side home.

The fifth and final game of the one day series between the White Ferns and England was played with a pink ball, rather than the usual white, to help raise awareness of breast cancer.

England won the series 3-2.
