Lanning rises to No. 2 among batters; Matthews makes big gains

Nat Sciver, whose 109 off 85 balls went in vain for England against Australia, moved up to No. 6 among batters

Back at the top of the order, Hayley Matthews proves she's still got it

She's had a patchy run since the 2016 T20 World Cup final, but on Friday, the West Indies allrounder put in a performance to remember against New Zealand

'When Deandra Dottin says give me the ball, you just give her the ball'

A severe lack of bowling time did not deter Dottin from wanting to bowling a high-pressure final over, and executing to perfection to quell New Zealand

Devine 108 in vain as Matthews-powered West Indies pull off massive opening-day upset

Matthews hits maiden WC century; Dottin picks up two wickets - and plays her part in a run-out - in manic final over to seal the game

West Indies captain Stafanie Taylor calls on batters to fire in unison in World Cup

"What we need to do is be in that collective in each game, be consistent"
