Amy Satterthwaite's superb unbeaten century guided New Zealand to an easy seven-wicket victory over England in the final one-day international in Dunedin.

England opener Tammy Beaumont resumed her fine form with 88 not out and captain Heather Knight netted60.

But the rest of the batters struggled as the tourists fell from 140-2 to be bowled out for 220 off 47.5 overs.

Satterthwaite hit 119 and Amelia Kerr made 72 not out to lead the hosts to their target with 20 balls to spare.

"I'm definitely frustrated," said Knight. "But I like that we were tested," she added, according to BBC

"Obviously we want to keep winning, but we'll probably get more from this game than we will from the first two, which is a real positive with the World Cup next year."
