Eden Carson finished her 10-over quota in the 45th over of the innings. However, Sophie Devine called her back to bowl the 47th over, thinking she still has one over left in her quota. The 21-year-old bowled brilliantly in her 11th over as she conceded just a single, while bowling 5 dot balls. Meanwhile, she became the first cricketer from the White Ferns squad to bowl more than 10 overs in an ODI since 1993.
