After the opening game of the series in Derby on Wednesday evening saw England Women secure a seven wicket win with 16 balls remaining, plenty of home fans in Canterbury were expecting another easy win for the hosts on Saturday.
And when England Women reduced New Zealand Women to 11/4 in the first innings of the game before the end of the fourth over, it looked like those supporters were going to be proven right and be heading home early!
However, New Zealand Women produced a fantastic comeback and levelled the series to setup this epic winner takes all clash on Monday in Hove.
Expect a big crowd and an excellent contest to end the series.

England Women will be wondering quite what happened on Saturday after they got themselves in a fantastic position early in the match yet were unable to get the win.
Linsey Smith was brilliant with the ball during the opening exchanges as was the tall Lauren Bell who continues to impress with her pace, height and accuracy in this format.
With the bat, England Women need one of their top four to kick on from a good start in this game - on Saturday Sophie Dunkley, Alice Capsey, Maia Bouchier and Heather Knight were all dismissed between 22-38.
England Women will want to iron out their errors from Saturday in this game.

Sophie Devine, the former skipper of the White Ferns and who is scheduled to retire from international cricket at the end of the 2026 Women's T20 World Cup, proved that she is still on a different planet to the majority of her team-mates on Saturday.
Rescuing them from the depths of an early defeat when they were 11/4, the experienced Devine went on to hit 87 from 57 balls, including 11 boundaries, and could only be dismissed courtesy of a run-out!
Maddy Green also impressed with an unbeaten half-century before Bree Illing and Nensi Patel got to work with the ball.
Melie Kerr and Lea Tahuhu both come into this clash after getting a wicket each in Canterbury.

Hove will benefit from some kind of sea breeze on Monday but it is forecast to be very hot! Expect the temperature to be in the low thirties at the start of this game.

The pitch in Hove has often taken spin during the end of the season and so far this year we have seen the ball turn. A par score will be around 175-190 in the first innings.
New Zealand Women have batted first in both matches, although only once was it their decision! With the heat on Monday, we predict that both captains will want to bat first in this clash.
After New Zealand Women pulled the game from defeat to win on Saturday, this series is wide open! If Sophie Devine can deliver again then New Zealand Women can not be ruled out but player for player it is England Women who have the stronger side and we predict a victory for the hosts.
We are backing England Women to win!
