Rain intervened in the second ODI between the two emerging player teams.
New Zealand had batted first and posted a creditable 161 for 6 within the allotted 37 overs - the start having been delayed by rain. The target was based around a fine 50 from Natalie Dodd, with good support from
Maddy Green, Katie Perkins, Anna Peterson and Lauren Down.
In reply the Aussies were struggling at 36 for 3, before Beth Mooney and Sarah Coyte steadied the ship, but at 84 for 3, with just over 18 overs to play, the rain returned and the players didn't.
The third game in the series is on Monday 19th November.
The Aussies lead 1-0
