The Australian Women captain is a dominant opening batter in the 50-over format in women’s cricket. Healy has over 3000 Women’s ODI runs, so you can expect her to make a significant score.
The tourists feature a strong bowling unit. With pace and swing in the first ten overs, they will be a handful for the New Zealanders. You can expect a cautious start to the game.
The difference between these two nations is the depth of their squad. New Zealand Women contain numerous match-winners in their side, but the number of world-class players in their opponents’ squad outnumbers them. The Black Ferns have some momentum behind them in the form of a Women’s T20 World Cup victory, but their visitors have been dominant in the longer white-ball format.
The Aussies have continued their dominance in this series. In the last five meetings against the Black Ferns, they have won four times and one game being abandoned. They won the previous match by a convincing 65 runs on the DLS Method.
This is the final Women’s ODI of the series. New Zealand Women play against Australia Women at Basin Reserve, Wellington on Monday, 23 December 2024 and will be live-streamed in India on the FanCode app.
The powerful Sophie Devine brings years of experience to the field. Suzie Bates is another seasoned campaigner alongside her captain. She is a dependable batter and offers more insight on the field with Devine. Bates has a high score in the format of 168. She also has 13 centuries in Women’s ODIs.
Bella James made her Women’s ODI debut in the second game. She is an emerging opening batter. Amelia Kerr is a world-class young all-rounder. She showed her class with the bat in the second Women’s ODI with 38 runs.
Brooke Halliday and Maddy Green anchor the middle-order batting. They will rotate strike or accelerate as required. Lauren Down and wicketkeeper-batter Isabella Gaze lengthen the batting lineup.
The bowling attack is well-rounded with the pace duo of Rosemary Mair and Molly Penfold. They will trouble batters on this pitch with their variations. Penfold starred with four wickets in her previous game, showing her potency on this pitch.
Eden Carson’s spin adds variety and control to the attack. She will be a useful asset in the middle overs. The spinner bagged a double in her last match.
The ever-present Alyssa Healy will bring her blend of experience and youthful energy. Healy has been a leader in the batting unit for the best part of a decade now. She is supported by the elegant Phoebe Litchfield. Both Alyssa Healy and Tahlia McGrath got starts with scores in the 30s in their previous innings.
Ellyse Perry brings invaluable experience with her all-round brilliance. Beth Mooney is a dependable wicketkeeper-batter who adds stability in the middle order. Australia are blessed with more all-rounders in the form of Annabel Sutherland and Ashleigh Gardner.
Both offer depth with their batting power and useful bowling options. Sutherland was the clear standout batter in the second Women’s ODI when she hit an unbeaten century to get Australia Women to a score of just over 290 runs in their 50 overs. Perry and Gardner claimed one wicket each in the last game.
Tahlia McGrath’s versatility and ability to adapt to any role add balance, while Alana King’s leg-spin will be crucial on spin-friendly tracks. Kim Garth, Megan Schutt, and Darcie Brown form a potent pace attack which will use this pitch to its full potential.
Garth claimed bowling figures of two for 17 in six overs in her previous match.
This is the third match of the series played at the same venue. This third Women’s ODI will also be played as a day match. Both captains may prefer to bat first in an attempt to make the most of the best time to bat.
The Australians managed a total of almost 300 in the second ODI at Wellington. This pitch will be a decent wicket to bat on, but batters will need to play sensibly to earn their runs. The seamers were more successful in the wickets column. There may be some seam movement on offer again, particularly early on. Any score of 240 runs or more should make for an exciting game.
The weather in Wellington should allow for a full game of 50-over cricket. Temperatures are expected to be moderate, but very humid. There is only a 15 percent chance of rain.
The Australian Women have a decorated history of winning against their Trans-Tasman rivals. They look well on their way to repeating the dose against their hosts. The Black Ferns will need their star players to show up, especially against an Australian touring lineup which has that winning pedigree.
The incredible depth of talent in their lineup also means they are never out of the game until the final ball.
Bet on Australia Women to win this match.
