Betting Tips
The team with the top batter to be New Zealand
1.70
Several New Zealand batters such as Brooke Halliday, Maddy Green, and the skipper Suzie Bates are in good form. You can bet on one of them to emerge as the top batter of this contest.
The top batter total to be less than 78.5 runs
1.85
A score of 79 runs has only been exceeded twice in the history of women's international one-day cricket at the McLean Park in Napier by the batters. So, you can bet on the top batter to score less than 79 runs in this contest.

NZ-W vs SL-W Toss Prediction
We have seen three women's ODI games played at the McLean Park ground in Napier. The teams batting second have won two of them. So, chasing a set target might be a better idea on this track.
Pitch and Conditions
This venue in Napier has always been a good batting surface. However, it will assist the quicks especially early on when it is fresh. As the contest progresses, the track will slow down and things will become easier for the batters. Moderate rainfall is expected during the contest.
The temperature during the encounter will be close to 17 degrees.
NZ-W vs SL-W Betting Tips
New Zealand Women have a terrific record against Sri Lankan women in the ODI format. They have won eleven out of the 13 games played between the two teams. This is also the first game of the series, and acclimatizing to the conditions might also be an issue for the Lankan Women. New Zealand Women start as favorites to win this contest and take an early lead in the series.
Bet on New Zealand Women to win.
