That's it from the coverage of this game. We will be back tomorrow with more cricketing actions across the globe and across formats in our network. For now, this is Ayan Chatterjee signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Akshay Bhide alongside scorer/analyst Ashok Dayma. Stay safe, happy, and cool. Goodnight and CHEERS!
Heather Knight (England Women Captain): "Well, I think we played really well. It was also great energy from the crowd. People came out to watch us and it helped us perform better. The bowlers did a fine job. They were ruthless with the ball. It was good to stay there till the end.
We have worked hard to get here. We have worked hard with our skills. The seamers are doing well. Gibson has come back in the side and working hard on her seam-bowling. To get Devine with that type of delivery is great. We want to stay unbeaten throughout this summer and try to emulate the same performance at Lord's.
A few selection problems to be honest. The girls are doing it very hard for us. We are bringing in the girls and they are stepping up. Anyone we pick up in the side, looks a formidable side. That's a good problem to have. But that's where we want to be before the World Cup.
We love the support. Our aim is to entertain the fans. We feed off their energy. When the crowd goes up, it boosts us. Also, there was a Mexican wave as well when we were batting. Hopefully, a good crowd at Lord's as well and we will look to finish the summer on a high."

Sophie Devine (New Zealand Women Captain): "Yes, England are dealing us honest lessons and we are not learning from them. We are not good enough and don't have answers at the moment.
I am not too sure what is going wrong. Wickets in clumps never helps you out there. This is not acceptable at the international level.
We need to get back to the drawing board and see how we improve in two days.
Yes, to play in those crowds is great and good exposure.
Gaze and Green showed some positives, but we need to be a lot better.
One more opportunity to do well for the White Ferns and we pride in our performances and hope we can finish with a win at Lord's."

Sarah Glenn (Player of the Match): "I feel the girls had a lot of energy in the field and they boosted me while bowling. It was a very good performance.
We communicate really well. We try to adapt consistently. We also have similar personalities and it helps.
I have not changed too much technically. It's just about the having the right mindset. I chase wickets but I try to stay calm.
I wanted the fifth wicket but I dragged down a bit. But happy with my performance today and hopefully, I'll pick up a fifer in the future."

1:30 AM IST, 9:00 PM Local Time: Another dominating performance from the hosts England as they go 4-0 up in the 5-match series with a game to spare.

Nothing much to talk about for New Zealand Women. A wicket apiece for Lea Tahuhu, Amelia Kerr and Eden Carson. But it was too low a score to defend.
New Zealand batted first earlier in the evening and got off to a promising start getting to 33/0 in the powerplay and then lost their way after that. Suzie Bates scored 16 while Georgia Plimmer scored 17. The middle order was blown away. Maddy Green looked good for her 24 off 25 balls while Izzy Gaze scored 25 off 24 balls. 3 extras given by the fielding side as New Zealand crawled their way to 103/8 in 20 overs.
