Zimbabwe Women (ZIM-W) will take on Papua New Guinea Women (PNG-W) in the third and final ODI of the Papua New Guinea Women Tour of Zimbabwe 2024. Having dominated the first two matches, the home team currently leads the series 2-0. PNG will aim to end the 50-over contest on a positive note before moving into the T20I cricket action.

Zimbabwe won the first match by seven wickets as they chased down a target of 178 in just 38.5 overs. Half-centuries from Chipo Mugeri-Tiripano and Mary-Anne Musonda led the way for ZIM-W’s comprehensive victory. They extended their lead with a two-wicket win in the second match. This time the visitors put up a great effort while defending a below-par target of 126.

The final ODI is scheduled to take place on Thursday, March 28, at the Harare Sports Club in Harare. The same venue will also host the three-match 20-over series starting March 30.  As we head into an exciting affair, let's take a look at the pitch report, average score, predicted XIs, fantasy teams, and many more.

Pitch Report

The pitch at Harare Sports Club is more supportive of the bowlers. Fast bowlers are likely to be more effective on this surface than spinners. Batters need to show some patience in scoring runs instead of swinging the bat for every delivery. The hosts won the toss in the last two matches and won both games after electing to field first.

Player Picks

C

Mary-Anne Musonda ZIM-W | BAT

Mary Musonda is currently the leading run-scorer in the series with 78 runs from two matches. The Zimbabwe skipper scored a brilliant half-century in the opening match.

9
C

Brenda Tau PNG-W | BAT

PNG captain Brenda Tau was the lone warrior for her team in the series opener. On the back of her 72 runs, the visitors reached a decent score of 177. She is likely to step up again in the final ODI.

9.5

Josephine Nkomo ZIM-W | ALL

The right-arm pacer has taken six wickets in the series so far, topping the list of highest wicket takers. With the pitch shows more helpful for the Pacers, Nkomo is likely to have another productive outing in the next game.

9

Chipo Mugeri ZIM-W | BAT

Mugeri was retired hurt in the first match. But before leaving the crease, she made sure her team was safe. The left-handed batter scored a match-winning 71 off 105 balls. She did not feature in the second ODI, but is likely to return for the upcoming match.

8

Vicky Araa PNG-W | BAT

Vicky Araa seems to be in red-hot form. She went wicketless in the opening game, but bounced back in the second ODI with a four-wicket haul at an economy of just 2.1.

7

Francesca Chipare ZIM-W | BOWL

Chipare grabbed three wickets at an economy rate of 2.2 in the last game. The right-arm pacer is likely to continue her fine form in the upcoming match as well.

Tanya Ruma

PNG-W | BAT

PNG's no.3 batter Tanya Ruma has struggled to find runs in both matches. She could scored just 17 runs in the series and looks set to continue her poor form in the upcoming match.

8

Geua Tom

PNG-W | BAT

The PNG pacer went wicketless in both the matches. While the rest of the bowlers conceded an economy of less than six, she touched almost nine in the first match.
