Just the start New Zealand wanted. A day to remember for Suzie Bates who is now third in the list of most ODI hundreds in Womens cricket. They will be next playing South Africa on Wednesday at the very same venue. Sri Lanka though will hope for a turn of the tide. They gonna face Australia next, on Thursday. But there's plenty of Womens World Cup action before that. Don't miss out. Hope you're having a great weekend. Until next time, cheers!!
