Matthews shines again, WI women lose again

Mon, Nov 17, '14

BOWRAL, Australia, CMC – Teenaged opener Hayley Matthews carved out here third successive half-century but it did little to prevent West Indies Women’s losing skid from continuing, as the Caribbean side plunged to an eight-wicket defeat in the third One-Day International here Sunday.

Defending 220 for seven, West Indies watched helplessly as Aussie captain Meg Lanning stroked her fifth one-day hundred to power the hosts to their target in the 44th over, to complete a comfortable victory at Bradman Oval.
