NZ-W vs AUS-W Dream11 Prediction, 1st T20I, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing 11, Injury Updates & Pitch Report

After a magnificent clean sweep in the Women's Ashes 2025 against England women, the Australian women's side is all set to lock horns against New Zealand for three T20I matches. The opening thriller is set to take place on March 21 at Eden Park in Auckland.

Coming to the team dynamics, the White Ferns have had mixed fortunes in their recent white-ball series. The side managed to win the ODI series against Sri Lanka but suffered defeat in the opening match of the T20I series, leading to the series being levelled at the end. New Zealand now need to turn around their fortunes if they aim to replicate their 2024 T20 World Cup fortunes in the forthcoming ODI World Cup slated to take place in October in India.

On the other hand, Australia have been in great form and possess a better record against the Kiwis in the shortest version of the game. Skipper Tahlia McGrath will be looking to lead the side against the strong opponents.

New Zealand have lost key pacer Hayley Jensen to a warm-up injury, with Izzy Graze and Bella James also suffering injuries. Sophie Devine, Amelia Kerr, Lea Tahuhu return as New Zealand Women announce squad for T20I series. On the other hand, Australia too are missing their talismanic player Alyssa Healy. Stand-in captain Tahlia McGrath will lead the side in her absence.
