Greenway played in five of England's World Cup matches
England batter Lydia Greenway has said the team are still in shock after beating New Zealand to win the Women's World Cup for a third time.
Charlotte Edwards' side beat the White Ferns by four wickets in the final in Sydney on Sunday.
Greenway told BBC London 94.9 "I think it's still sinking in. Obviously it's been our goal for the past four years." Greenway was also part of the England side who retained the Ashes in Australia in 2008.
The 23-year-old, who made her England debut in 2003, said team-spirit was a key factor in their success Down Under.

Hamilton:New Zealand 270-5 (47 overs) lost to India 201-0 (23.3 overs) by 10 wickets (D/L)M
atch scorecard
Sehwag's century was the seventh fastest in one-day history
Virender Sehwag smashed an unbeaten 125 as India beat New Zealand by 10 wickets in a rain-affected match to win their one-day series 3-0 with one game left.
Brendon McCullum top scored with 77 as New Zealand amassed 270-5 off 47 overs.
But Sehwag compiled the fastest one-day ton by an Indian, in 60 balls, to lift the tourists to 201-0 when rain stopped play for a fifth and final time.
Sehwag hit six sixes and 14 fours, with Gautum Ghambir 63 before Duckworth-Lewis came into play after 23.3 overs.
India were always ahead of the par score according to Duckworth-Lewis with Gambhir, and Sehwag in particular, blasting a woeful Black Caps attack to all corners of Hamilton's Seddon Park.
Iain O'Brien, brought in to replace Tim Southee, conceded 12 runs an over while Jacob Oram and Ewen Thompson were also expensive at 10 runs an over.
606: DEBATE
At that rate Sehwag could have easily broken the 200 barrier - phenomenal batting
coolinterstarEven captain Daniel Vettori did not escape as Sehwag brought up his century with a massive six straight down the ground.
But the rain, which had already reduced India's target to 263 off 43 overs and then to 220 off 36 overs, returned for a final time to rob a capacity crowd of the chance to see more of Sehwag's clean hitting.
Vettori said: "We got a good old-fashioned hiding.
"We didn't really get ourselves in the game, we were a little bit short with the runs and then Sehwag and Gambhir played outstandingly to take the game away from us."
Jesse Ryder (46) put on 102 for the first wicket with McCullum, but he top-edged Yuvraj Singh to Suresh Raina at square leg.
The middle order failed to capitalise with Ross Taylor lasting just 13 balls, and Oram scoring just one.
McCullum fell inbetween the two, leg before to Zaheer Khan, to leave the home side 156-4.
But Peter McGlashan (56 not out) and Grant Elliott (35 not out) steadied the innings, adding 95 in a sixth-wicket partnership that spanned two rain delays.

Auckland:New Zealand 151-2 (23.2 overs) beat India 149 (36.3 overs) to win by 8 wickets (D/L)Match scorecard
Ryder smashed six fours and four sixes on his way to 63
New Zealand finished their one-day series against India on a high with a comprehensive eight-wicket victory.
Jesse Ryder made a half-century and took three wickets as New Zealand wrapped up the rain-affected match with almost 20 overs to spare in Auckland.
Ryder took 3-29 as the Kiwis dismissed India for 149 before scoring 63 from 49 balls as the Black Caps raced to victory in 23.2 overs.
New Zealand's win was a consolation, with India winning the series 3-1.
Ryder, who plundered six fours and four sixes, shared a second-wicket stand of 84 with Martin Guptill after the early loss of Brendon McCullum.
In a match reduced by rain from 50 to 43 overs per side, it was Guptill who hit the winning runs at Eden Park.
Guptill took 10 from two balls to record 57 off 50 balls and wrap up the match with Ross Taylor unbeaten on 28.

Floyd Reifer scored an unbeaten 101 to help CCC recover to 231 for 7 against Windward Islands © The Nation
Floyd Reifer led Combined Campuses and Colleges by example, standing firm with an unbeaten 101 and rescuing them from a precarious position at 65 for 5 against Windward Islands in St Vincent. They recovered to 231 for 7 at stumps on the first day as important contributions of 39 from Nekoli Parris and 34 from Kurt Wilkinson lent good support to Reifer's fighting effort. Offspinner Shane Shillingford starred for Windwards, taking 4 for 62, including both Parris and Wilkinson, who was involved in a 58-run sixth-wicket stand with Reifer. The CCC captain dominated proceedings thereafter as Kevin McClean made 9 in a partnership of 46, and Ryan Austin was unbeaten on 9 in an ongoing eighth-wicket stand of 62. Reifer, who has represented West Indies in four Tests, reached his 12th first-class hundred with a drive off fast bowler Nelon Pascal for a couple, and his team will bank on a similar effort tomorrow to post a sizable first innings score.
Tamar Lambert played a captain's innings, scoring 143 but failed to find enough support from the other batsmen as Jamaica managed 272 against Barbados at the Kensington Oval. Opener Brenton Parchment contributed 43 and Wavell Hinds chipped in with 30 but Jamaica squandered a relatively comfortable position - they were 199 for 4 at one stage - to lose their last six wickets for 73. Allrounder Kevin Stoute, who bowls medium-fast, took 4 for 41, dismissing Parchment and West Indies international Brendan Nash, and capturing two wickets towards the end of the innings. Lambert brought up his second first-class century off 230 balls, and his knock was laced with 15 fours and three sixes. Jamaica would consider themselves fortunate for reaching their eventual score as Lambert was dropped thrice. Kirk Edwards put him down even before he had scored and Ryan Hinds spilled a sitter while he was on 43. He survived a chance on 96, when wicketkeeper Patrick Browne failed to hold on to a low chance. In their reply, Barbados finished the day at 16 for no loss.
The first day's between Guyana and Leeward Islands was called off without a ball being boplay at the Albion Sports Complex wled as a result of a wet outfield.

Elliott is a powerful ball-striker and useful medium-pacer
Surrey have signed New Zealand all-rounder Grant Elliott as their overseas player for the opening weeks of the new county season.
The 30-year-old, who was born in South Africa, is due to arrive on 21 April and will stay until the end of May.
"Having someone of his ability around will definitely strengthen us, especially in one-day cricket" said Surrey cricket manager Chris Adams.
Elliott has played three Tests and 21 one-day matches for New Zealand.
And he hit his maiden international century in a one-dayer against Australia in Sydney last month.
"I'm really excited about playing for Surrey. It will be a great opportunity for me and I hope I can make a difference and help win some games during my time there.

Lee was a key player for Australia in the 2005 Ashes
Australia paceman Brett Lee is hoping a spell in the Indian Premier League will help him regain fitness ahead of the Ashes series in England.
Lee decided against a spell in county cricket in favour of bowling short spells in the Twenty20 tournament as he plots his comeback from ankle surgery.
"The ankle is feeling great, and I'm definitely on schedule," said Lee, 32.
"I've played in two Ashes there, and I'm looking forward to getting back and making the third one even better."
Mitchell Johnson, Peter Siddle and Ben Hilfenhaus have seized the opportunity created by injuries to Lee and Stuart Clark to stake their claim for places by bowling Australia to an unassailable 2-0 lead in the current Test series in South Africa.
And Lee, a veteran of 76 Tests and 173 limited overs internationals, acknowledges he has no automatic right to a place in the first-choice XI.
"I think it's very healthy for Australian cricket," he said.
"I always keep a note on what's happening overseas, and the guys have been playing extremely well.
