    The White Ferns have felt the force of a revitalised South Africa, suffering an eight-wicket loss in their second one-day cricket international in Auckland


    The result means New Zealand have lost their first ODI series against the fifth-ranked Proteas with a game to play.

    The hosts could only muster 115 in 36 overs - Suzie Bates was the only player to score more than 20.

    Captain Sophie Devine says South Africa's in the ascendancy.



    Game three's in Hamilton on Thursday.
