England Women Win Again

Taylor - starred with the bat.

Charlotte Edwards and Claire Taylor shared an unbeaten stand of 101 to guide England's women to a six-wicket victory over South Africa in their one-day international at Shenley.

Alicia Smith had top-scored for the visitors with 68 as South Africa were bowled out for 158 with Isa Guha, Lynsey Askew and Laura Marsh each taking two wickets.

England initially made an assured response but after Beth Morgan was out with the score on 40, the hosts lost a further three wickets for 18 runs to be reduced to 58 for four.

However, Edwards and Taylor steadied proceedings and guided England to victory to be unbeaten on 58 and 37 respectively.

Ashlyn Kilowan was the most potent of South Africa's bowlers finishing with figures of three for 19.

England have an unassailable 4-0 lead in the five-match series and will hope to complete a whitewash when the sides meet at Chesterfield on Monday.
