The White Ferns won Friday's third Twenty20 international against South Africa by six wickets at Eden Park. 

A close finish looked to be brewing as the White Ferns chased South Africa's 149 for seven, with the hosts sitting on 68 for four at the halfway mark of 10 overs. 

But an unbeaten 84-run partnership between Sophie Devine and Maddy Green got the hosts home with eight balls to spare. 

The series now heads to Wellington on Sunday, and Adam Cooper spoke with opener Georgia Plimmer to preview the match.
