Megan Schutt, Ashleigh Gardner propel Australia women to 17-run win over New Zealand in first T20I

Firstpost  

With the visitors closing in on Australia’s total of 138, Schutt claimed the vital wickets of Katey Martin and Suzie Bates in the 18th over to leave the Kiwis struggling at 105-5. Brisbane: Australia’s Megan Schutt took two vital wickets in the closing stages as the world champions beat New Zealand by 17 runs in Saturday’s opening T20 clash in Brisbane. “We thought we were in the game because there was a little bit in the pitch.” After New Zealand captain Sophie Devine won the toss and sent Australia in, the home side got away to a sluggish start in the face of some tight Kiwi bowling. Bates and Martin looked to have got the New Zealand chase back on track until Schutt’s crucial double break.
