The first three Twenty20 internationals were played as the curtain raisers to the Black Caps Twenty20 series against South Africa.
In the first match at Wellington's Westpac Stadium the White Ferns were restricted to 80 for nine in their twenty overs, their second lowest total and lowest against England. Anya Shrubsole was the destroyer for England finishing with five for 11 off her four overs.
Four of England's five bowlers conceded less than four runs an over off their four overs during the New Zealand innings. Kate Broadmore produced the most economical bowling figures for New Zealand against England in reply finishing with figures of 1 for 11 including two maidens in her four overs. But only Sian Ruck of the other bowlers was able to match the English bowlers and concede less than four runs an over.
At Hamilton England scored the second highest total against New Zealand with their 166 for seven proving to be too good as they won by 48 runs, their largest winning margin against the White Ferns.
Charlotte Edwards and Laura Marsh added 82 runs for the first wicket with Edwards' partnership of 95 with Sarah Taylor at Bath in 2007 being the only higher first wicket partnership against New Zealand.
Suzie Bates and Sarah McGlashan added 56 for New Zealand's second wicket in reply, the second largest partnership for the White Ferns against England. They had also combined for the highest stand adding 105 together at Southampton in 2010.
In the third match New Zealand were level with the England score at the same stage when the rain arrived after 18.5 overs. England went on to score another 18 runs off the last seven balls of their innings however the White Ferns did not get that opportunity going down by ten runs under the Duckworth-Lewis method.
A record unbeaten seventh wicket partnership of forty four between Jenny Gunn and Suzie Rowe took England to 108, a total that they were eventually able to defend.
After the fourth match in Invercargill was rained off England completed a clean sweep by winning the final match by five wickets.
Sarah McGlashan and Amy Satterthwaite put on 50 for the White Ferns third wicket but were not able to force the pace.
Once again Anya Shrubsole caused the damage for England, finishing with two for seven off her four overs. Throughout the whole series she finished with the outstanding figures of ten for 48 off 15.2 overs.
Morna Nielsen tried her best for a New Zealand win producing the second best and most economical figures for the White Ferns against England as she took four for ten off four overs and stifled the England scoring rate.
However it was Jenny Gunn once again, this time with Arran Brindle, who saw England home adding an unbeaten 49 for the sixth wicket after a mid-innings collapse by England.
