Forget Netflix, the real drama was on the cricket field as New Zealand thrashed South Africa in the fifth match of the series. With a stunning century from the in-form Amelia Kerr, who also picked up 2 wickets, the Kiwis showcased a perfect all-round performance that left the visitors reeling. South Africa's 102 was never going to cut it, and they crumbled under pressure with Kerr leading the charge.

Kerr's knock of 105, combined with her economical bowling figures of 2 for 6, not only sealed the match but also highlighted her as a serious talent in women’s cricket. The South African batting order struggled to find any rhythm, with wickets tumbling as they faced a relentless New Zealand attack. This series has been a wake-up call for the Proteas, who’ll need to regroup and rethink their strategy moving forward.

With the series wrapped up 4-1, New Zealand are riding high on confidence, while South Africa will have to ponder their next steps. Can they bounce back in upcoming fixtures, or will the pressure continue to mount?
