Ash Gardner and Megan Schutt powered Australia to a 17-run win over New Zealand, but the result could have been different if video technology had been available.
The White Ferns were convinced they had Nicola Carey caught behind first ball off the bowling of Sophie Devine. Though the sound-effects microphone picked up a large noise as the ball passed the bat, umpire Donovan Koch was unmoved, possibly because he could not hear the sound in the blustery conditions.
Had the call gone the Kiwis’ way, Australia would have slumped to 6-83. Gardner was in no doubt the wrong decision was reached, while Carey’s grin suggested she knew she had been fortunate.
