NZ-W vs AUS-W Dream11 Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – Australia Women Tour of New Zealand, 3rd T20

Written by: Chirag Naiknavare • 25.03.2025

Match Preview

Australian Women are currently in scintillating form on their tour of New Zealand. They handed over a couple of solid thumpings to the New Zealand Women in the first couple of games to pocket the T20I series. Both these victories were comprehensive. As a result of this performance, we have just dead rubber in the final game of the series. New Zealand Women will be looking to salvage some pride by trying to get a consolation win here. They will need to get rid of Beth Mooney quickly, though.

Mooney hammered two half-centuries in as many games in the series and took the game away from the New Zealand Women right up front. The Aussie bowling attack has been right on the money and made early inroads in the New Zealand line-up. Georgi Voll also hit a half-century in the first game. New Zealand batters played well in the first game, although they batted too slowly to raise a big score. This problem of not scoring their runs quickly enough might hurt the New Zealand prospects in this contest as well.

Bright and sunny weather conditions are expected for this encounter on the 26th afternoon in Wellington. The temperature during the contest will remain close to 18 degrees, and there is no possibility of getting any rain interruptions during the contest.
