Matthews, who top-scored in the three-match series with 177 runs that included blazing 100 not out in the first match in Canterbury and was named the Player of the Series. She has overtaken India’s Smriti Mandhana and Australia’s Tahlia McGrath to reclaim second position, which she had last occupied in December last year.
