---|---|
Date | 4rd August 2022 |
Time | 10: 30 PM IST, 5:00 AM GMT / 6:00 PM LOCAL |
Venue | Edgbaston, Birmingham |
Both teams have enjoyed a successful tournament so far, having won both their games. While these teams have qualified for the semis, this is crucial as it will decide which team will end the group stage as table toppers. This could be crucial as the winner will most likely avoid facing mighty Australia in the semi-finals.
In terms of quality, both teams are evenly matched with some big players in their kitty. However, England being the hosts will have a slight advantage. Also, the presence of quality spinners will help England.
The surface will be on the slower side and batters will have to work hard to score runs, especially against the spinners. We won’t be surprised if we have a low-scoring game between ENG-W and NZ-W. Chasing teams may face difficulties while batting second.
The weather will be partially cloudy, however, there is no threat of rain. In the evening, the temperature will fall to 9 degrees which can be chilly for the players.

It’s a very important game for both teams for the reason mentioned above. No team would want to face Australia in the semis thus both these teams would want to give their best to win the coming game.
England women have a great record against New Zealand women in T20Is.

Sophie Devine will be an important player in the match for NZ-W. She is very experienced and one of the best when it comes to this format. Devine is NZ’s highest run scorer in women’s T20Is with over 1300 runs. Also, she is a very good bowler who can turn the game on her head with the ball in hand.
Suzie Bates is also a dangerous batter who can demolish a bowling attack. Bates is the second highest run scorer for NZ in women’s T20Is. She looked good in the previous game as well and scored a valuable 34. She will be keen to play an even bigger knock in the next game. She is the highest run scorer of the CWG 2022 so far with 125 runs to his name in two matches.
The most destructive batter going around in world cricket at the moment, Danielle Wyatt isa match winner for England. She is the highest run scorer for England women in T20is with 1417 runs. Despite her low returns of late, she is a good selection.
She is the leading wickettaker for England women in T20Is. She has 70 wickets in just 50 matches for England. Also, with pitches assisting the spinners, she can be very dangerous. She has taken 4 wickets in 2 matches of the tournament.
Brunt has taken 52 wickets for England women in T20Is. She has been hot and cold in the tournament so far but a match winner like her deserves a place in the team in this crunch game.
