AUS-W vs NZL-W Prediction, 11Wickets Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update – New Zealand Women tour of Australia, 3rd ODI

Match Details:

The 3rd match of the ODI series between Australia Women and New Zealand Women will be played at the Allan Border Field in Brisbane.

The match is scheduled to start at 05:40 AM IST (12:10 AM UTC) (09:40 AM Local Time). It will be broadcasted live on Sony Ten 2 and Sony Ten 2 HD. Live streaming will be available on Sony Liv.

Preview:

After losing the first ODI by a considerable margin, New Zealand Women couldn’t bounce back in the second ODI either. Thus, they ended up conceding the series to Australia Women just as it was in the T20Is. Meg Lanning led the fightback for the Aussies in the last match and ensured that they kept their 21-year winning streak against this opposition intact.

This final game between both these sides is a dead rubber. But New Zealand Women will be hopeful of finishing off the tour with a win. However, after missing out in the T20Is, Australia Women will be keen on a clean sweep this time around. Also, Australia Women won 20 consecutive ODIs thus far and will want to keep the streak going.
