CWG 2022 NZW vs SLW Dream11 Team Prediction

NZ W vs SL W Match Preview

New Zealand women defeated South Africa women in their opening game of the commonwealth games. Batting first, New Zealand posted a healthy score of 167-2 in 20 overs. Suzie Bates scored a brilliant 91 while Sophie Devine played a good hand of 48. Later, the bowlers helped NZ win by 17 runs.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, were beaten badly by England women. SL could only score 106 in their quota of overs, which was easily wiped off by the hosts with five wickets to spare. The coming match is a complete mismatch as NZ are a formidable T20I unit, but the same cannot be said about SL, especially in overseas conditions.
