That brings an end to proceedings for today. We have the 5-match ODI series starting between the two teams on the same ground on Saturday. We will be there to bring you all the action. Till then on behalf of Ranjith, our scorer, signing off from here. Stay safe and take care. See you soon. Ta, ta!

Devine gets the trophy and her team joins in to pose for the photos. Lots of smiles and happy faces.

Bharath: "Come on guys. NZ is tough terrain. Even men's team struggles to win in NZ. With Smriti not in team, it's good they competed to this extent. Having said that, I don't mind giving captaincy to young hands of Smriti"

Nandhana: "See, as I mentioned, the difference was just 18 runs. The difference between the 2 teams was just 3 6s, which clearly shouts- POWER HITTER PLS"

Derrick: "Loving having cricket on screen while I'm at work - and great to see the Kiwi ladies doing the business ahead of the WCWC! Bring it on!"

Devine: It's awesome to lift the cup. It's been a while since we have won a series. It's the blueprint of how we want to play T20 cricket. To get over 150 was a great score for us. With the ball to execute clear plans was really good. It's about changing focus for the ODIs, for me not much changes, really pleased with the performance today, but we know that the real work starts now.

Harmanpreet: We were in the game when we were bowling but unfortunately the last few overs didn't go well for us. Even in batting we did not have partnerships but we have learnt a lot from this match and hope we will improve ourselves in the upcoming matches. When we are playing in one venue, we can learn a lot. Playing in the same venue will definitely help us.

Tahuhu: Not surprising for me, little bit surprising for everyone else, it's a bit of a plan we have talked about doing in the Super Smash and we thought of giving it a go here as well. I think it's a really good way to kick off what will be a really big couple of months for us. To get a win is really important for this group and really chuffed that we could get over the line.

Lea Tahuhu is the Player of the Match for her quickfire 27 and the wicket of Meghana.

4pm: Comfortable win for New Zealand in this one-off T20I. The Kerr sisters doing the damage with the ball and no-one from the Indian camp dug in for a long innings. Amelia Kerr got the openers in one over when it looked like they were going to launch and then Jess got the Indian captain out with a beauty. Meghana showed her talent with the bat but India were always behind the rate as Devine rotated her bowlers around. Everyone amongst the wickets except for Rowe and they finished the job by restricting India and taking wickets at regular intervals. Hang on for the presentation.

Sachin Gulmadag: "Perhaps Harmanpreet should do what Kohli did. Give up captaincy and carry on a strong and experienced batter"
