ENG-W Team News
New Zealand Women have not been able to stop England Women across this tour so far this summer and this match gives the hosts the opportunity to complete a WODI and WT20I whitewash. Such has been England Women’s dominance that they have been able to rest and rotate and we saw four changes ahead of the fourth WT20I.
ENG-W Team Batting
It was not the best batting performance from England Women in the fourth WT20I at The Oval but they still managed to win by seven wickets with 51 balls remaining! Once again, we can expect England Women’s batters to play in a very attacking manner in this final game.
ENG-W Team Bowling
England Women’s bowling attack in the last game was led by Sarah Glenn with Sophie Ecclestone once again showing her class. Lauren Bell went wicketless at The Oval but she will be looking forward to bowling at Lord’s in this match.
ENG-W Team Form
England Women have been dominant across both formats during this summer against New Zealand Women.
ENG Women Predicted Playing 11
Danni Wyatt, Sophia Dunkley, Heather Knight (c), Nat Sciver-Brunt, Amy Jones (wk), Alice Capsey, Danielle Gibson, Charlie Dean, Sarah Glenn, Lauren Bell, Sophie Ecclestone
NZ Women Team News & Playing 11
NZ-W Team News
Searching for a way to pick up a win on this tour, New Zealand Women made three changes for the last game but once again it made little or no difference to the side’s performance. Ahead of this match at Lord’s, we expect New Zealand Women to select their strongest possible XI.
NZ-W Team Batting
Keeper-batter Isabella Gaze was the only one of New Zealand Women’s batting line-up to clear the boundary with a six in the last defeat in the fourth WT20I. We predict that Suzie Bates, Sophie Devine and Amelia Kerr will all look to play attacking cricket to try and put the pressure back on England Women at Lord’s.
NZ-W Team Bowling
New Zealand Women’s bowlers will look to Eden Carson’s performance at The Oval, where she picked up a wicket and was by far their most economical bowler. However, there has been little evidence that they have the consistency and level of performance to trouble England Women’s batters.
NZ-W Team Form
New Zealand Women need to win this match to prevent a sixth successive WT20I defeat.
NZ Women Predicted Playing 11
Suzie Bates, Sophie Devine (c), Amelia Kerr, Georgia Plimmer, Isabella Gaze (wk), Maddy Green, Eden Carson, Brooke Halliday, Lea Tahuhu, Hannah Rowe, Fran Jonas
🏆 ENG Women vs NZ Women Prediction
There has been no evidence in this series that New Zealand Women have the depth of talent to cause England Women many problems. With bat and ball, England Women were far superior at The Oval and we expect them to win easily once again at Lord’s on Wednesday.
