FALMOUTH – Player Of The Match Deandra Dottin snatched three wickets in one over as England Women dramatically lost their last six wickets for just three runs in the space of 29 deliveries, to hand West Indies Women an astonishing 38-run victory in the second One-Day International here yesterday.

Seemingly headed for their second straight loss with England cruising 107 for four in the 37th over in pursuit of a meagre 149 for victory at the Trelawny Multi-Purpose Complex, the Windies Women rebounded spectacularly through Dottin, to bundle the visitors out for 110 in the 42nd over.

Leg-spinner Afy Fletcher started the comeback when she plucked out top-scorer Natalie Sciver for 27 in the 37th over, caught by Hayley Matthews at cover, and when she trapped Danielle Wyatt lbw for seven in her next over, England were sliding at 108 for six in the 39th over.

Dottin then produced the lethal burst which stunned England. (CMC)
