Australia vs New Zealand Women Predictions


New Zealand have lost four of their last five matches, but they got back to winning ways with a 58-run win over India. Australia are in phenomenal form having won their last five on the trot, and their unbeaten run extends a lot further. They are huge favourites to beat New Zealand, having just defeated them 3-0 in their late-September series.

  • Australia Women’s Beth Mooney top-scored with 43 off 38 balls in the opener against Sri Lanka.
  • Australia Women’s Alyssa Healy has scored 38, 27 & 20 in her last 5 innings.
  • New Zealand Women’s Sophie Devine scored 57* off 36 balls in the win over India.
  • New Zealand Women’s Georgia Plimmer has scored 53 & 34 in her last 2 innings.

Head-to-Head


Australia have won all five of their last five matches against New Zealand.

Australia Women Form


Australia continued their incredible winning run by beating Sri Lanka in their opening match of the tournament by six wickets.

Megan Schutt was on fire with the ball, picking up three Sri Lankan sticks for just 12 runs (econ 3.00) as they restricted their opponents to 93/7 off their 20 overs.

Beth Mooney’s 43 off 38 balls ensured they hit their target off just 14.2 overs, having lost four wickets in the process. 

Australia Women Team News


Australia Women are in world-beating form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team.

New Zealand Women Form


After losing four matches on the bounce, New Zealand found their winning touch by beating India in their opener. 

Skipper Sophie Devine (57* off 36 balls) built on a 67-run opening stand between Suzie Bates (27) and Georgia Plimmer (34) to lift New Zealand to 160/4 off their 20 overs. 

Rosemary Mair (4/19) and Lea Tahuhu (3/15) were excellent with the ball, reducing India to 55/4 before bowling them out for 102 off 19 overs. 

New Zealand Women Team News


New Zealand will be heartened by their opening win over India, but they will need their entire side to bring their A Game if they are to give Australia a tough fight.

Verdict

I am backing Australia Women to win. I am also backing Beth Mooney to top score for Australia Women.

Sophie Devine is a good bet to top score for the New Zealand Women.
