New Zealand 309 for 4 (Satterthwaite 137*, Martin 65) beat Pakistan 142 for 4 (34.2 overs) (Abidi 45, Khan 33, Bates 2-21) by 60 runs (D/L)Scorecard and ball-by-ball detailsAmy Satterthwaites 117-ball 137 powered New Zealand women to 309 for 4 - their sixth highest total in ODIs - before Pakistan womens chase was interrupted by rain in the 35th over to give the home side a victory by 60 runs in Lincoln, by the D/L method.After New Zealand won the toss and chose to bat, captain Suzie Bates (34) and Rachel Priest (27) put on 53 for the first wicket. They were dismissed within 15 runs of each other, before Satterthwaite and Katey Martin put together a 150-run partnership, New Zealands highest for the third wicket. Martins 65 - her third half-century in four matches - was followed by Sophie Devines 29-ball 34 as New Zealand scored 91 runs in their last 10 overs.Four Pakistan bowlers went for over six runs per over, and nine wides were conceded in the innings. Maham Tariq, Sana Mir and Sadia Yousuf took a wicket each.Pakistans chase was pegged with Ayesha Zafars dismissal in the fourth over, before rain stopped play. After play resumed, Nahida Khan (33) and Nain Abidi (45) stitched together a 76-run partnership for the second wicket, before they were both dismissed in successive overs as Pakistan slumped from 85 for 1 to 85 for 3. Bates bowled Nida Dar soon after, to pick up her second victim, but rain intervened again in the 35th over bringing the game to a close with Pakistan on 142 for 4 - 61 runs behind the D/L-adjusted target of 203.Satterthwaite, whose score was the fourth-highest by New Zealand woman cricketer, said she kept track of such milestones but did not get carried away with them. Im certainly aware of them - anyone who knows me, knows I look at the stats a little bit, but its not something I tend to hold on to, Satterthwaite said. You just want to go out and perform your role and if that means you end up with a milestone then its an added bonus.Satterthwaite credited her rich vein of form to a more relaxed approach. I think probably being nice and relaxed is something Ive worked on in domestic cricket. I wanted to be relaxed and focus on my strengths and what I can do. And then if a bowler bowls a bad one, you hit it.The win gave New Zealand a 2-0 lead in the five-match series. The results of the next three matches will count towards points for the Womens Championship, in which New Zealand are currently fourth and Pakistan seventh. The top four teams in the Championship will gain direct entry into next years World Cup in England. Marquise Goodwin Super Bowl Jersey . The CFLs leading rusher kept adding to his gaudy numbers this season and scored the winning touchdown with just over two minutes to play. The New Westminster, B.C., native plowed three yards into the end zone for the last score of a heated, see-saw battle between the two teams with the best records in the CFL. Kwon Alexander Super Bowl Jersey . The Celtics closed out their first preseason under Stevens on Wednesday night with a 101-97 victory over the Brooklyn Nets, who rested a lot of their lineup including former Celtics Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce. https://www.49ersrookiestore.com/49ers-Ahkello-Witherspoon-Jersey/ .J. Ellis hit two-run homers and the NL West champion Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the San Diego Padres 4-0 Saturday night. Kendrick Bourne Super Bowl Jersey . By having more great seasons. Manning was the only unanimous choice for the 2013 Associated Press NFL All-Pro team Friday. Richard Sherman Super Bowl Jersey .ca NHL Power Rankings for the second straight week, ahead of the Pittsburgh Penguins and Colorado Avalanche. The season wasnt supposed to go like this for the Cardinals and Panthers , Bengals and Packers . They combined to go 50-14 in 2015, all of them making the playoffs.This season, heading into Green Bays Monday night visit to Philadelphia, they are an ugly 15-26-2.Maybe all of that losing is overlooked when the Browns are 0-12 and the Niners are 1-10, having dropped those 10 after winning their opener. It shouldnt be.It starts to wear on you, Bengals cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick says. Im a winner. Ive never been in this position.That position is 3-7-1.Im just bummed, says Carson Palmer, whose Cardinals are 4-6-1 after making the NFC title game in January. Its disheartening, frustrating, and it hurts.How did it go so bad?ARIZONAThe Cardinals looked like the most-balanced roster in the NFL heading into September. While theyve had their share of injuries -- who hasnt? -- their shortcomings have centered on disappointing performances from many of the people they were counting on heavily.Start with Carson Palmer, who isnt making the big plays he produced last year and has thrown 11 interceptions to go with 15 TDs. Hes made some bad decisions and hasnt gotten much production out of any skill position guys except running back David Johnson, who has been terrific, and the always reliable WR Larry Fitzgerald. Arizona struggles to protect the stationary quarterback, too.Although the defense has some nice stats, its also not making game-changing plays.And special teams have been suspect.CAROLINAClearly the strangest collapse of 2016. The Panthers remain a dangerous opponent, as they showed Sunday by storming back from a 17-point halftime deficit at Oakland before losing 35-32.Super Bowl losers tend to struggle the next season, and Carolina is no exception, particularly in the secondary. Removing the franchise tag from 2015 All-Pro cornerback Josh Norman, who landed in Washington, has plagued the defense all season.The offensive line is a mess, leading to Cam Newtons falloff from his MVP showing. Jonathan Stewarts injury badly damaged a running game that only now is recuperating.Carolina also cant close, being outscored 128-75 in the fourth quuarter.dddddddddddd. Close games have been going the other way, too, with five losses by three points or less.We are done comparing everything to last year, standout tight end Greg Olsen says. The reality is that we are 4-7. It is a tough loss. Obviously, there are a lot of things that we could have done better to give us a better chance.CINCINNATIEvery coach, player and team executive will swear that past performances dont have much effect on current events. The Bengals might be better off living in the past, at least regular season-wise.This franchise has made five straight trips to the postseason, losing in its first game each time. No matter what the Bengals say, that does wear on a team, particularly one with so many veterans who have gone through those January failures.Cincinnati has the look of a group waiting for the opponent to seize control. Its meltdown in the wild-card matchup with Pittsburgh last season, a game the Bengals had no business blowing, sure seems to have caused a major hangover.Add in having few complements to the wonderful A.J. Green, who is now sidelined; a leaky blocking unit; questionable coaching decisions by Marvin Lewis and his staff; and key mistakes by special teams.GREEN BAYWhen you have a quarterback with a Hall of Fame-quality resume like Aaron Rodgers, and youve been to the playoffs seven straight seasons, expectations remain high. Results in 2016 have been low.Dont blame Rodgers, whos trying to carry the offense without a recognizable running game and with a line so jumbled it looks like, well, Swiss cheese.Of all the 2015 playoff teams who are spiraling this season, the Packers have had the worst injury epidemic. Their secondary is so undermanned it sometimes seems theres no one left to line up at cornerback.Questions even have begun to arise about the job security of Mike McCarthy, despite his stellar career record. Thats the usual fallout when projected contenders fall apart.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
