New Zealand vice-captain Amy Satterthwaite stated her plan was to construct an innings which might set as a platform for the hosts’ to get a giant complete. Amy was the highest run-scorer in opposition to India with a wonderful 75 off 84 balls laced with 9 boundaries as New Zealand made 260/9 and ultimately bowled out India for 198 all out to win by 62 runs.

“Was an attention-grabbing one, actually patches the place I actually struggled. We wished to take it as deep as we may, arrange a platform from the place we may launch. We most likely didn’t fairly do as we might’ve preferred to however ultimately it was sufficient. I simply tried to construct an innings to set a platform to launch from,” said Amy in the post-match presentation ceremony after being adjudged ‘Player of the Match’.

Amy felt not doing well in the opening match against the West Indies set the tone for her to do well in future matches. “Really disappointed with the way I played in that (first) game, probably let them into the game. Wasn’t positive enough and almost brave enough. It’s almost a reflection to go back and look on how I was playing. It was long enough to get us a total we needed today and our bowlers were exceptional.”
