NZW vs AUSW Match Prediction & Analysis
We are in the third and final game of the three-match ODI series. Hosts New Zealand Women will look to level the series after going down by 65 runs. The Australians have an unassailable lead with this win. The first game saw no result as rain played spoilsport. The Aussies will be confident after their big win in the last game and look to have another series win against New Zealand.
Australia Women has dominated this format in the last four years. They have lost only twice in the last 20 games the team has played, making them confident. They haven’t lost against New Zealand Women in the last 14 games. It will be a massive challenge for the Kiwis, and it will be interesting to see if they can stand up and take on the Aussies.
TEAMS PREVIEW
New Zealand Preview
Sophie Devine and her team will head into this game with their backs against the wall. They struggled with the ball on a good wicket in the last game, and their batting also struggled. They haven’t won against the Australians in this format since 2017. Devine would like a strong show from her players as they take on the challenge to get the monkey off their backs.
Isabella Rose James is an exciting young prospect for the team, and she will look to deliver a strong start with Suzie Bates. Amelia Kerr has been the best batter for the team in the last 12 months, and she must add runs in the middle order with Sophie Devine and Brooke Halliday. The team expects a good show in the lower middle order from Maddy Green and Lauren Down.
Australia Preview
Alyssa Healy and her players were clinical in the last game. The side has dominated the Kiwis over the last seven years and extended their good record with the big win in the last game. The batting looks good, and the bowlers used the conditions well in the last game. Healy would like another strong show from her players and grab the series 2-0.
Alyssa Healy and Phoebe Litchfield delivered a good start in the last game, and the side needs a similar effort from the pair. Annabel Sutherland hit a brilliant hundred in the last game and will look to add runs with Ellyse Perry and Beth Mooney. Ashleigh Gardner and Tahlia McGrath add to the team’s batting firepower in the lower middle order.
Weather Conditions
The skies over Wellington will be partly cloudy. It is an excellent wicket, with the ball coming onto the bat nicely, allowing batters to play their strokes freely. Bowlers have found the surface challenging. The average first-innings score is 245 runs. The side batting first would need 280 runs on the board to feel safe on this wicket.
NZW vs AUSW Pitch Report
The wicket at Basin Reserve, Wellington, is a batters’ paradise, allowing them to play their strokes freely. There is assistance for the fast bowlers with the new ball as they can generate bounce from the surface. Spinners have also enjoyed success here as the large boundaries help them.
Toss: To Bowl
The last few games at this venue have been high-scoring contests. Bowlers have found assistance from the surface in the early overs, but it has been a batter’s wicket. The side winning the toss would look to take advantage of the conditions by bowling first in the game.
