New Zealand Women all but secured top spot in Group A as they earned a third win in as many games with a six-wicket victory over Trans-Tasman rivals Australia, in Nagpur. The White Ferns eased home with 22 balls in hand after restricting the defending champions - at one stage 4-4 - to 103-8, their lowest score in World T20 cricket.But for Elysse Perrys 42, Australia - winners of the last three World T20s - might have struggled to reach the lowest Womens T20 ever made, that being Sri Lankas 57 against Bangladesh in October 2012.Meg Lanning chose to bat first but her team was on the back foot from the off against the triple-spin threat of Morna Nielsen (0-4 off four overs), Leigh Kasperek (3-13) and Erin Bermingham (2-23).Elyse Villani and Alyssa Healy fell to Kasperek in successive balls, failing to clear Lea Tahuhu at mid-on, before Meg Lanning was left stranded by Erin Osbournes poor call for a single. When Osbourne snicked behind on the drive, Kasperek had figures of 3-0 and Australia were staring at abject humiliation.But Perry carefully rotated the strike first in partnership with Alex Blackwell (10) and Jess Jonassen, striking three fours and a six before falling lbw to Sophie Devine - ball tracking indicating the ball would have gone on and missed leg.New Zealands chase received early impetus as Suzie Bates warmed to her task, pinching successive boundaries in Kristen Beams second over. Kate Cross takes on the Sky Sports Five Ball Challenge... Together with Rachel Priest, Bates put on 58 for the first wicket in 7.5 overs before both fell in the space of three runs - Priest top-edging a slog-sweep and Bates sent back by Osbournes precise throw.Osbourne was back in the action, turning one past Sara McGlashans edge for Healey to pull off a neat stumping, but Australia simply didnt have enough runs on the board to prevent Amy Satterwaite from steering the White Ferns home off 16.2 overs.Watch highlights of New Zealands victory over Australia on Sky Sports 2 from 6pm, then join us for live coverage of England Women against India Women live on Sky Sports 2 from 9.30am on Tuesday.

Premier League results - Night Ten James Wade 7-4 Raymond van Barnveld Gary Anderson 3-7 Phil Taylor Robert Thornton 5-7 Michael van Gerwen Adrian Lewis 6-6 Peter Wright Phil Taylor 7-4 James Wade Taylor said this week that he felt two wins would all but guarantee a return to the O2 for Finals Night in May after missing out last year and he delivered those victories on the opening night of the second phase of the tournament. First up for Taylor was defending Premier League champion and two-time defending world champion Gary Anderson and the Power clocked up an impressive 7-3 success after reeling off five successive legs after trailing 3-2.The Flying Scotsman missed chances to forge a 4-2 and that seemed to affect him as Taylor cruised through the remainder of the match to apply the pressure on Van Gerwen who was up next.The Dutchman responded by ending a run of three successive draws in a high-quality contest against a rejuvenated Robert Thornton. Michael van Gerwen was back to his best with a win over Robert Thornton (Pic: Lawrence Lustig) MVG recorded an average of 117.95 in his victory but was made to work hard by Thornton who fought back from 6-2 down to 6-5 and give himself a chance of an unlikely point - it was not to be for the Scot and Van Gerwen reduced the gap on Taylor back to just a point.However the Power was back in the final match of the evening to secure a valuable 7-4 victory over James Wade and a priceless lead aat the top of the table ahead of next weeks fixtures in Belfast.ddddddddddddTaylor was too strong for the Machine, although both men showed signs of tiredness in their second match of the evening.With scoring and finishing scrappy, Taylor looked to have done enough when he moved into a 5-1 lead as Wade wasted a string of chances.

At three-each it was a close match and then he let me in, and I took advantage of him. It was hard in the second match against James, its difficult but youve got to do it and to get the two points from that game is lovely.In the nights opening match, Wade had begun with a fine 7-4 victory over Raymond van Barneveld.Barney knew he needed victory to keep alive any slim hopes of a play-off place and the pair could not be separated until the 10th leg when Wade broke for the first time and a 6-4 advantage which he consolidated to win the match.Adrian Lewis and Peter Wright shared the points in a scrappy and disjointed affair.
