Amelia Kerr delivered an outstanding all-round performance, guiding New Zealand women to a commanding 200-run victory against Zimbabwe women in the third ODI.
Kerr's patient half-century stabilized New Zealand's innings, setting the stage for a substantial total of 303/6. Support from Maddy Green, who also scored a half-century, and Brooke Halliday was crucial in surpassing the 300-run mark.
With the ball, Kerr played a pivotal role in restricting Zimbabwe's chase. Her disciplined bowling stifled partnerships and contributed to a middle-order collapse, preventing Zimbabwe from reaching the target.
Zimbabwe was eventually dismissed for 103 in 27.1 overs, marking an emphatic win for New Zealand, largely attributed to Kerr's match-defining contributions.
