World Cup final proved another one-sided contest, with the home side winning by 20 runs after earlier posting 154 for six.
England had clearly planned for an all-guns-blazing performance – captain Heather Knight calling on the eve of the game for her side to “put on a show” – and they found their woman in Nat Sciver, who blasted 82 from 61 balls, her highest score in the format, including 17 off the penultimate over of England’s innings.
