England Women will face New Zealand Women in the 1st T20I of the New Zealand Women tour of England 2026 at County Ground, Derby. New Zealand Women performed well in the ODI series and finished it with a 1-1 result after winning the final ODI by 17 runs. Maddy Green scored 37 runs, Brooke Halliday added 42, while wicketkeeper Izzy Gaze played a useful knock of 22 runs. The visitors have also been in excellent form in T20 cricket, having won their previous series against Zimbabwe and South Africa, and they will look to continue that momentum in England.

Meanwhile, England Women will be aiming to bounce back after losing their previous T20I series against India Women. Despite the recent setback, England have a strong head-to-head record against New Zealand Women and will be confident playing at home. Lauren Bell is expected to lead the bowling attack, with support from Danielle Gibson and Charlie Dean, who were among the key wicket-takers in the ODI series.
