ENGW vs NZW Toss Prediction
We have seen just three women's ODI games played at Chester le Street in England. The team batting first won two of these games, while one team chased a total successfully while batting second. So, the skipper might want to bat first and set a big score rather than chasing with assistance from the bowlers. However, it might be better to chase here if the hard wicket mellows a little in the second innings.
