New Zealand advanced to their third Women's T20 World Cup final after a thrilling 8-run victory over the West Indies, overcoming Deandra Dottin's all-round brilliance. Dottin, who picked up 4 wickets for 22 and top-scored with 33 off 25 balls, nearly single-handedly carried West Indies to a win. However, Amelia Kerr’s crucial dismissal of Dottin in the 17th over helped New Zealand secure their place in the final alongside South Africa.
New Zealand struggled to 128/9 after a strong start from Georgia Plimmer (33) and Suzie Bates (26), as Dottin’s spell wrecked the middle order. But New Zealand’s bowlers, led by Eden Carson (3-29) and Kerr (2-14), kept West Indies in check during their chase. Despite Dottin’s late onslaught, the pressure was too much for the Windies, who needed 15 off the last over but fell short.
This win marks New Zealand's first T20 World Cup final in 14 years, a remarkable turnaround after their recent poor form. For more match predictions and betting tips on upcoming games, visit Lotus365's sports betting page.
