CAPE TOWN, South Africa (CMC) — Another lower-order collapse condemned West Indies Women to a four-run defeat to South Africa Women in their third and final Twenty20 International and a 1-2 series loss here yesterday.
Chasing an uncomplicated 120 for victory at Newlands, West Indies Women were sailing at 81 for three in the 15th over at one stage, before losing five wickets for 16 runs in the space of 18 deliveries to end on 115 for eight off their 20 overs.
They required 12 runs off the final over, but came up short as Shamalia Connell (13 not out) and Anisa Mohammed (five not out) failed to find the boundary.
Deandra Dottin and opener Hayley Matthews both top-scored with 24, while Captain Stafanie Taylor got 23, but they were just three of four batsmen to reach double figures.
