Win cause for celebrations | Hawkes Bay Sport | Surfing, Rugby, Soccer, Football, Cricket in Hawkes Bay

TV Cameras rolling and a few thousand people beginning to stream into a stadium promising 60,000 spectators, who could possibly blame Kate Broadmore for her hi jinks.

The Central Districts Hinds allrounder took her peacock antics to the ANZ Stadium in Sydney on Wednesday night into the White Ferns' six-wicket victory over Australia in their fourth Twenty20 international.

Broadmore took a sterling three wickets for nine runs from her four allotted overs on a slow pitch to help stifle the hosts to 92-7 in the rain-reduced 18-over affair for the tourists' victory in their Rose Bowl tour that began last month.

"Yes, Kate Broadmore was outstanding and she had some good celebrations so we had her on a little about that," rookie New Zealand captain Suzie Bates said as the team headed for Melbourne Cricket Ground yesterday for their last T20 international tonight.

Broadmore does her "wiggle dance" on the field when she takes a wicket, makes a catch or runs a batsman out.

It was also Bates' first victory as full-time skipper, although she had had one when deputising for ex-captain Aimee Watkins against India.

Opener Bates top scored with an unbeaten 40, with Hawke's Bay-born CD batsman Sara McGlashan adding 19 in an experiment to promote her to the top of the order as the Kiwis overhauled their target of 95-4 with five balls to spare.

Auckland Hearts batsman Maddy Green made her debut at No4 with the next highest score of 14 runs in a batting line up on tour that has had a tendency of showing brittleness.

"Our series [one-day and T20s] got off to a slow start and we had a few losses," said Bates, keen to keep the momentum rolling in today's T20 at the MCG before heading back home to host the equally belligerent England team here in a fortnight.

Rain has also hampered the Ferns' tour but Bates was happy the organisers ensured the game was played on Wednesday night as a curtainraiser before the Australia men's 31-run victory over India in their first T20 clash before their Commonwealth Bank One-day triangular series begins on Sunday with Sri Lanka joining them.

While the stadium looked empty "there was a bit of noise" when Australian captain Jodie Fields (37 not out) lofted the ball over the rope for a six.

"We stayed [to watch the men] until the the Indians looked like they weren't going to get through," Bates said.

Even if the Ferns had won the toss, they would have bowled.

"We had watched a few Big Bash games and [the wicket] was slower."

While New Zealand women's international player of the year McGlashan had hit a huge six as an opener, coach Gary Stead was still tweaking the side now that they had lost the series.

"We needed to change a few things but we don't know what the future holds for that spot [opener]," she said of McGlashan's promotion.

Debutante Green, 20, had also displayed what she was capable of under pressure.

With different conditions likely and a Melbourne forecast of 29C, Bates expected frugal Wellington Blaze left-arm opener Sian Ruck to come back into the fray today.

While England would be tough, she felt it was a case of the Ferns having confidence in their abilities. The Aussie tour had provided the preparation for that.
