Edgbaston: Veteran England pace bowler Katherine Brunt and young Issy Wong grabbed two wickets each as the hosts destroyed New Zealand's batting order and then scored a massive seven-wicket win in their Group B match of the Commonwealth Games Women's T20 tournament here. The victory means the hosts will take on India in the semifinal, while the other last-four clash pits Australia against trans-Tasman rivals New Zealand.
