The pressure tells.
Georgia Plimmer has struggled with her timing and it finally costs her wicket, with a skewed drive that loops up to Charlie Dean for a routine catch in the covers.

Consecutive maidens. Very different to the first ODI, where New Zealand got off to a bit of a flier.
There's a huge round of applause as Lauren Filer sends down another maiden. England a pinning New Zealand down here.
Feels like New Zealand are wary of giving away cheap early wickets like they did in the first ODI when they were reduced to 75-5.
Georgia Plimmer is struggling with her timing slightly as she is early on a couple of drives that rise up before landing safely.
A handy maiden in the powerplay from Kate Cross.

Lauren Filer has tightened her action since she first came on the scene. She hits the surface really hard. I always think it's hard for cricketers to work on their action when there's so much international cricket. She's worked really hard.
There's some strangled appeals as Lauren Filer gets one to keep low and crash into Georgia Plimmer's pads - but a tiny inside edge saved the New Zealand opener.
A skewed inside edge through square leg gets Plimmer off the mark, before a final delivery rises up a touch off a length.
Looks like there will be plenty to go at on this pitch for the seamers.
Ffion to the rescue with her music knowledge again.

It was a remix of Murder on the Dancefloor that was holding up play, for those who are interested.
At least it's a banger.

Suzie Bates likes to hit, likes to hit straight down the ground. A little too full from Cross.
Glorious drive from Suzie Bates.
It is overpitched from Kate Cross and Bates plays a beautiful straight drive, showing the maker's name, with the ball racing down the ground for four.
Good response from Cross as she beats the outside edge with a ball that just shapes away from the New Zealand opener.
There's some pumping music blaring from the speakers as the players take to the field. A bit much for this time on a Sunday morning.
Kate Cross is back in the team and will open the bowling.
There will be a lot focus on Sophie Devine, Suzie Bates and Amelia Kerr to get New Zealand off to a strong start at the top of the order. They mustered just 39 runs between them on Wednesday and the innings never really recovered.
Georgia Plimmer was also looking well set before being unluckily run out for 29 after a deflection off her bat at the non-striker's end.

Ex-New Zealand all-rounder on BBC Sounds
England are a very good side, there's a lot to like. There's still a few teething problems with how they play. They want to inspire and entertain - I love that. All the teams have been chasing Australia, but to flip that, to want to entertain is great. I really enjoy watching them - didn't so much enjoy playing against them!

It is an England XI that signifies they are keeping one eye firmly on the upcoming T20 World Cup, despite being in the middle of an ODI series.
Leaving Lauren Bell out is an interesting call, as she has formed a dependable opening partnership with Kate Cross over the past few years - but it's understandable. With her place pretty much nailed on for the World Cup, I'd imagine Jon Lewis is hoping she'll play all/most of the five T20s that follow this ODI series.
And Nat Sciver-Brunt still isn't bowling her full allocation, so expect Alice Capsey to make up some overs.
So two changes for England, with Alice Capsey and Kate Cross in for Lauren Bell and Sarah Glenn.
New Zealand make one change with Lauren Down, who gave birth to her first child six months ago, replacing Hannah Rowe.
England: Tammy Beaumont, Maia Bouchier, Heather Knight (c), Nat Sciver-Brunt, Danni Wyatt, Amy Jones (wk), Alice Capsey, Charlie Dean, Sophie Ecclestone, Kate Cross, Lauren Filer
New Zealand: Suzie Bates, Georgia Plimmer, Amelia Kerr, Sophie Devine (c), Maddy Green, Brooke Halliday, Lauren Down, Isabella Gaze (wk), Jess Kerr, Molly Penfold, Fran Jones.
There is plenty of white cloud overhead at Worcester but no wet stuff is in the forecast so we should get a full game in, albeit with little sunshine.
Openers Tammy Beaumont and Maia Bouchier put on a batting masterclass as England cruised to victory by nine wickets in the first ODI at Chester-le-Street on Wednesday.
Beaumont finished with 76 not out and Bouchier 67 in an opening stand of 137, with England chasing down their victory target of 157 in just 21.2 overs.
New Zealand were skittled out for 156 inside 33.3 overs, with spinner Charlie Dean taking 4-38.
See the best of the action below.
New Zealand captain Sophie Devine: "We probably would have had a bowl first as well but I don't think the wicket will change too much. It should be the same when we bowl.
"One game doesn't define us. We have done a lot of hard work over the last few months and still have a lot of confidence in what we are doing."
England captain Heather Knight: "There might be a little bit in the surface. There is a bit of softness and live grass. We want to put their batters under pressure again.
"The first game was a complete performance. I was impressed with how ruthless we were. It was probably one of the best games we've had. The challenge is doing it again.
"Nat [Sciver-Brunt] is able to bowl a bit more so Alice Capsey comes back in alongside Kate Cross with Lauren Bell and Sarah Glenn missing out."
