AU-W vs NZ-W Prediction, Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update – New Zealand Women tour of Australia, 2nd ODI

Match Details:

The 2nd 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 winning the final T20I in the three-match series against Australia Women, New Zealand Women failed to carry the momentum into the ODIs. The visitors were completely outdone by the hosts and lost the opening game of the series by 7 wickets. Their performance with the bat wasn’t great and that was not followed up by a special effort with the ball either.

Meg Lanning led her team from the front with an unbeaten 62 and also ensured that her team got over the line comfortably. This loss would have been quite demoralising for the White Ferns. However, they should look to correct their mistakes and must come up with a strong performance in this match. If not, the Australia Women would also clinch the ODI series as they did in the T20Is by winning the first two games.
