KINGSTON, Jamaica, CMC – West Indies Women produced a miserable batting effort to collapse to a heavy 112-run defeat to England Women, in the third One-Day International of the five-match series at Sabina Park here Friday.
Chasing 221 for victory in the first of the ICC Women’s Championship matches, only opener Shaquana Quintyne (21) and all-rounder Deandra Dottin (20) made it past 20 and they were just two of three in double figures, as the hosts crashed to 108 all out off 35.4 overs.
They were comfortably placed at 35 for one in the 13th over but dramatically lost their last nine wickets for 73 runs, with seamers Jenny Gunn (2-8) and Laura Marsh (2-31), along with left-arm spinner Alex Hartley (2-25) all taking two wickets each.
The defeat left West Indies 2-1 down in the series following last week’s games at the Trelawny Multi-Purpose Stadium but more significantly, saw them unable to pick up the precious ICC Championship points which go towards qualification for next year’s Cricket World Cup in England.
