NZ Women Team News & Playing 11
NZ-W Team News
There will undoubtedly be calls for changes to the batting line-up after New Zealand Women were dismissed for 76 by Australia Women and 67 by New Zealand Women. However, there are not many viable options in the squad and we expect the order to be changed rather than any new players.
NZ-W Key Players
- Suzie Bates - After a golden duck against Australia Women, the talented right-handed opener lasted only one additional ball against South Africa Women. We expect her to find some form in this game.
- Sophie Devine - The captain dropped down the order to number five and top scored in the heavy defeat to South Africa Women. We expect to see her back at the top of the order in this match.
- Lea Tahuhu- Although it has been a very disappointing start to the tournament for her team, the right-arm medium fast bowler has impressed by picking up five wickets already.
NZ-W Team Form
New Zealand Women have been beaten by 97 runs by Australia Women and 65 runs by South Africa Women so far in the Women's T20 World Cup 2023.
