Drops, disappointment and dismay - NZ's day to forget in the field

The West Indies secured a seven-wicket victory over defending champions New Zealand in their opening match of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup, held in Southampton. New Zealand's fielding performance was notably poor, with the team dropping six catching opportunities against the West Indies. This lapse in defense allowed the West Indies to capitalize and achieve their winning margin. The match marked a disappointing start for the New Zealand team in the tournament.
