The team with the top batter to be New Zealand Women

1.55

New Zealand Women have a stronger batting lineup and that is why we think this is a relatively safe bet to make.

After the rain-affected first game of the ODI series between New Zealand Women and Sri Lanka Women, we had the first complete game in the second. New Zealand Women opened their account with a win in Saxton Oval. The third and final game of this ODI leg of the tour will also be played at the Saxton Oval in Nelson. Let's closely examine this contest's match preview, betting tips, match prediction, and pitch report.

The New Zealand Women have played against the Lankan Women fifteen times in the ODI format. New Zealand Women hold a 12-2 advantage in this head-to-head.

NZ-W vs SL-W Team Previews

New Zealand Women

New Zealand Women won the second ODI to take a 1-0 lead in this ODI series. Now, they cannot lose the series. They batted first in this encounter and were in trouble, as they were reduced to 59 for four in 18 overs.

But Maddy Green hit a hundred to take the team to safety with support from the lower middle order in the form of Jess Kerr and Polly Inglis. They ended up putting up 245 runs on the board while losing seven wickets. Bree Illing bowled well again to pick up two crucial wickets but the pick of the New Zealand bowlers was Hanna Rowe who picked up a four-fer to seal the fate of the Sri Lankan innings.

Maddy Green will again lead the New Zealand batting charge in this game. She has scored 290 runs in her last ten games with an average of 41.43 and a strike rate of 85.79. Brooke Halliday has also scored 261 runs in her previous ten appearances for New Zealand Women with an average of 29 and with a strike rate of 71.5.

Hannah Rowe will be in charge of the New Zealand bowling charge, with eight wickets from her five games and a strike rate of 27.75. Eden Carson has also picked up eight scalps from her last eight games with a strike rate of 50.75

Sri Lanka Women

The first ODI between the two teams played yesterday had to be abandoned due to rain. The game was evenly poised, although the New Zealand bowlers were in a slightly better position when the heavens opened.

The Lankan innings was in troubled waters immediately at the start when Bree Illing dismissed the Lankan skipper Chamari Athapaththu for nine. But Vishmi Gunaratne and Harshitha Samarawickrama were involved in a useful partnership that took the score to a position of safety.

Chamari Athapaththu will lead the Lankan batting charge in this contest. She has scored 467 runs in her last ten appearances with an average of 58.38 and an excellent strike rate of 98.52. Vishmi Gunaratna scored 318 runs from her last ten games for Sri Lanka with an average of 35.33 and a strike rate of 75.53.

Kavisha Dilhari will lead the Lankan bowling attack with 17 scalps from her last eight games with a strike rate of 23.7. Achini Kulasuriya has also picked up ten wickets from her previous seven games with a strike rate of 31.8.

NZ-W vs SL-W Toss Prediction

The pitch at the Saxton Oval in Nelson might wear during the second innings. So, the skipper who wins the toss might wish to bat first on this venue as this is an ODI game.

Pitch and Conditions

The surface at the Saxton Oval tends to slow down in the second innings. That aside, it is a good track for batting. The teams batting first have raised big scores on this pitch in the past. We are expecting mostly cloudy conditions during the contest.

The temperatures during the game will remain close to 21 degrees.

NZ-W vs SL-W: Who Will Win?

The Kiwi Women have an excellent record against the Sri Lanka Women. They are also playing at home and are better aware of the conditions. Most of their bowlers appeared to be right on the money in the first game of the ODI series before the showers came down.

NZ-W vs SL-W win percentage is 88% in favor of the New Zealand Women.

Bet on New Zealand Women to win.
