New Zealand women 162 for 3 (Bates 66, Devine 54) beat Pakistan women 158 (Zafar 52, Huddleston 4-20) by seven wicketsScorecard New Zealand womens bowling prowess came to the fore with right-arm medium pacer Holly Huddleston taking 4 for 20 before half-centuries from Suzie Bates and Sophie Devine studded their seven-wicket win over Pakistan Women in the fourth ODI in Nelson.That meant New Zealand extended their dominance in the series to go 4-0 up with one match remaining, and more importantly, become the third team after Australia and England to seal a spot in next years Womens World Cup, leaving just one direct entry to be filled up.Pakistan, asked to make first use of a new surface at the Saxton Oval, stuttered to 158 in 48.1 overs, before New Zealand chased the total down with 165 balls remaining, having struck at well over seven an over.Bates dedicated the performance to victims of the earthquake that shook New Zealand on Monday. The match was preceded by a minutes silence and players of both teams wore black armbands. We wanted to pay our respects after a challenging and tragic week for New Zealand, she said. Its been a tough week for some of the players who are based in Christchurch too, along with everyone else, and we wanted to go out and play some cricket to take our minds off that and honour those people who are really struggling at the moment.Early signs did not point to such a one-sided contest, however, as Pakistan had got themselves into a strong position, scoring 107 in the 28th over for the loss of just Nahida Khan for 16 in the 13th over. But Ayesha Zafars dismissal, caught and bowled off Amy Satterthwaites right-arm medium pace, for 52 - her maiden ODI fifty - triggered a collapse with Pakistan losing their last nine wickets for 51 runs.Satterthwaite dismissed Bismah Maroof for a first-ball duck, but Javeira Khan denied her the hat-trick. Captain Sana Mir tried to keep the fight going with 31, but ran out of partners rapidly, and was the last batsman dismissed. Huddleston finished with 4 for 20 in 7.1 overs. Lea Tahuhu and Satterthwaite took two wickets each and were both economical, while Bates and Ameila Kerr took one each.New Zealand got off to a flier with Bates and Rachel Priest putting on 38 in 3.4 overs. Bates flayed Sadia Yousuf for five consecutive fours in the second over of the chase. Although Mir dismissed Priest with her fourth ball, it hardly slowed New Zealand down. Bates kept the carnage going in the company of Devine, promoted to No. 3, adding 94 in 14 overs.Bates biffed 66 off 52 balls and Devine struck 54 at just over a run a ball. Bates fell in the 18th over and Devine became Javeira Khans only victim less than three overs later, but with New Zealand needing just 17 and almost 30 full overs to play, it was too little too late for Pakistan.

Jim Rutherford, President and General Manager of the Carolina Hurricanes, announced Wednesday that the team would assign Swedish forward Elias Lindholm to his nations team for the upcoming tournament. COLUMBIA, S.C. -- South Carolina coach Will Muschamp is in no hurry to reveal who will be the Gamecocks starting quarterback.Muschamp said he will likely wait until right before the Gamecocks open the season at Vanderbilt on Thursday night before revealing if hell go with experience in senior Perry Orth or youth in freshmen Brandon McIlwain or Jake Bentley.South Carolinas depth chart has all three listed as potential starters and Muschamp did little to end the guessing game, saying he and quarterbacks coach Kurt Roper needed to talk over the choice a bit more before gametime.We have a pretty good idea of where were headed with it, Muschamp said. Obviously as many practice opportunities as we can give these guys the best.He did say that he expected to use at least two quarterbacks during the game.We feel that way, Muschamp said.With such a young offense (if McIwain starts at quarterback, it will make seven sophomores or younger in the lineup), Muschamp believes it is to his advantage to keep Vanderbilt prepping for all the Gamecocks quarterbacks.Looking at it from the outside, it is a little frustrating being who are we getting ready to play, because they are a little different skill set as far as what weve put on film with those guys, Muschamp said.Its not only frustrating to opponents.Wed both like to know, Orth said of the competition between himself and McIlwain. We both have played very well this camp, but whatever decision the coaches make, well be supportive of that.Orth threw for 2272 yards against the Commodores last October in a 19-10 victory that was South Carolinas last win in a season marked by Steve Spurriers stunning departure as coach.ddddddddddddcIlwain, who enrolled in January, has shown poise, talent and the ability to quickly pick up the fast-paced schemes thrown his way.Orth is preparing like hell start.I did the same thing last year, he said.Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason believes his offense, which gave up five turnovers in the loss, will be a sharper one than the Gamecocks saw that time.I can tell you, this offense has given us all we can handle, said Mason, who also serves as Vanderbilts defensive coordinator. Theyre as good as theyre ever been since Ive been here. Those guys are working hard, making plays and getting better.Roper has said this month that experience will go a long way because of how young the Gamecocks will be everywhere else. It wont, however, outweigh someone no matter how new to the program, took the job with a strong performance.That hasnt happened yet.Muschamp was asked if his quarterback battle was simply a ploy to keep Vanderbilt in the film room trying to break down which of the three passers will play.I think that certainly if I felt like somebody had been head and shoulders above the other guys, then certainly we would have probably named a starter, Muschamp said. I dont know that weve seen that. ' ' '
