By Ashley Williams



HOVE, England (TheSportsNext) September 15, 2012: England women cricketers continued stamping their authority in Twenty20 International cricket here Saturday with an 84-run victory over touring West Indian women cricket team.







 

The English women literally outplayed their West Indian counterparts for the fourth time in the series at Hove to take an unassailable 4-0 lead in the five-match Twenty20 International series.

Batting first, England women scored 154 for three from their 20 overs with Lydia Greenway (61 not out) and Sarah Taylor (43) playing crucial knocks to take the home side to an impressive total.

Stafanie Taylor (4-0-23-2) was the only West Indian bowler with respectable figures.

In reply, the West Indian women never looked in the hunt as they were easily restricted to 70 for eight from their 20 overs, thus falling 84 runs short of victory.
