ENGW vs NZW Team Previews
England Women
England Women continued with their good form on Saturday as well as they defeated New Zealand in yet another one-sided affair. With 4 wins in as many T20 matches, the hosts are on track to give yet whitewash to the visitors.
Sophia Dunkley and Danielle Wyatt continue to be impressive at the top of the order as they posted a 50+ partnership in the last match. Alice Capsey is the leading run-scorer for the team with 104 runs and is averaging 52.00.
The middle order consisting of Nat Sciver-Brunt, Amy Jones, and Heather Knight has chipped in with some crucial knocks and lent stability to the batting line-up. However, the biggest highlight for England in this series has been the performance of its spinners.
Sarah Glenn and Sophie Ecclestone have picked up 8 wickets each, while Charlotte Dean has 4 wickets against her name. While the quicker bowlers have bowled some good spells, they would like to pick up a few more wickets.
England Women Playing 11
Danielle Wyatt, Maia Bouchier, Alice Capsey, Natalie Sciver, Heather Knight, Amy Jones, Freya Kemp, Charlie Dean, Sophie Ecclestone, Lauren Filer, Lauren Bell.
New Zealand Women
New Zealand has struggled to perform throughout this tour and would like it to be over as soon as possible. After playing 7 matches across formats, they are yet to register a win.
A lot was riding on the performance of Suzie Bates and Sophie Devine, who are two of the most experienced batters in the squad. However, they have failed to contribute much with the bat. Bates did get a couple of good starts but that hasn’t been enough to extract a positive result for the team.
The other batters in the middle order including Amelia Kerr, Brook Halliday, Isabella Gaze, and Maddy Green haven’t fared much better as well, and that hasn’t allowed the team to post big totals.
Lea Tahuhu is the leading wicket-taker for the team with 5 wickets but has received little support from the bowlers at the other end.
New Zealand Women Playing 11

Pitch and Conditions
The pitch at the Lord’s Stadium is usually well-balanced and provides a good contest between the bat and the ball. The surface has some green grass and the quicker bowlers will get some help early on in the match. That said, the pitch evens out as the match progresses, and the batters will be able to play their shots.
A score of around 160 will be competitive.
The weather is likely to be clear with temperatures below 25 degrees.
ENGW vs NZW Betting Tips

Bet on England W to win.
Bonus Cricket Bets
The English openers have batted well in this series, putting up two 50+ stands in the 4 matches played so far. On the other hand, the highest partnership for the visitors is 33 runs.
Sarah Glenn is the leading wicket-taker for England with 8 wickets. She has been the best bowler for the team in 2 of their last 4 matches. As the pitch at the Lord’s does assist the spinners, she has a good chance of doing so again.
