It was either white buns with butter and lasagne stuffed in the middle or he would be having black and green juices.” “He obviously smoked most of his life. I don’t know; I think it was just a massive heart attack. That’s what I think has happened,” Erskine added.

ICC Women's World Cup 2022: NZ-W back on track with easy win vs BAN-W in rain-curtailed fixture

Hosts New Zealand were back on track in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2022 after clinching a 9-wicket win against Bangladesh in Dunedin on Monday in a rain-curtailed fixture. The match was reduced to 27-over per side after rain played spoilsport and New Zealand were handed a target of 141 runs. Bangladesh managed to pick an early wicket after Salma Khatun cleaned up Sophie Devine for 14 off 16 but the Asian side couldn’t really capitalise on the start they got as Suzie Bates and Amelia Kerr came in for the rescue. The two batters stitched an unbeaten partnership of 108 runs for the second wicket. While Bates was not out for 79 off just 68 balls, Kerr was 47* off 37. Earlier, in the day, Bangladesh started off the proceedings well with openers Shamima Sultana and Fargana Hoque putting up a stand of 59 runs for the first wicket. But Sultana’s departure pushed the side on the back foot as they began to lose wickets at regular intervals and were 119/6 at one stage before ending the innings at 140/8. Hoque scored 52 off 63. Satterthwaite was the pick of the bowlers after she scalped three wickets for 25 runs in 5 overs. “It's the nature of this tournament (on asked about overcoming the disappointing loss to WI), we have games coming quickly with very less turnaround time. Grateful to the ground staff for getting a game of nearly 50 overs, to Bangladesh for coming up and the umpires for getting the game on,” Devine said after the match.
