Harmanpreet Kaur and Co will need to turn their fortunes around quickly after suffering a 58-run defeat to New Zealand in their first encounter. The Women in Blue, who were favourites to win the title, must now win all three of their remaining matches if they are to have any chance of reaching the semi-finals of the tournament.
