A King to M Green
Green won't stop. She aims for a boundary against Alana King. Over the wicket. Googly at length outside off, the batter goes to the pitch of the ball and then clears the fielder at mid-on with some ease. Goes to the fence at long-off for a boundary. And we will witness some break as the rain gods have decided to pause the drama in Wellington!
9:28 AM IST, 4:58 PM Local Time: The rain has arrived and the players are heading off the field. The groundstaff is quick to get the pitch covered.
The DLS par score is 187. New Zealand are 65 runs behind.
