England 2 for 176 (Knight 108*, Sciver 59*) beat Thailand 7 for 78 (Chantam 32, Shrubsole 3-21) by 98 runsHeather Knight took England's early World Cup campaign by the scruff of the neck after an early fright against Thailand with a maiden T20I hundred - becoming the first woman to score centuries across all three formats - as her team secured an emphatic 98-run victory which gave them a handy net run-rate boost.The early thoughts of what could transpire at Manuka Oval, when England lost their openers in the first two overs, turned to something a touch more prosaic as Knight and Nat Sciver added an unbeaten 169 for third wicket, England's highest stand in T20Is, followed by a professional performance in the field.At 7 for 2 after 10 balls, England were far from comfortable coming off the back of their opening defeat to South Africa, but by the end of the powerplay had settled and were rarely challenged after that.
