AU-W vs NZ-W Dream11 Match Prediction | Who Will Win Today match

North Sydney Oval, Sydney, September 29 at 02:40 PM IST

As the preparations for the Women T20 World Cup takes charge, Australia women would be welcoming New Zealand Women for a three-match T20 series with the first T20 to take place at the North Sydney Oval in Sydney.

Both teams are filled with natural entertainers which makes this game an intimidating contest. This would be a big game for New Zealand’s newly appointed skipper Amy Satterthwaite on personal grounds as this would be her first stint as a skipper after Suzie Bates stepping down from this role.

Interestingly, New Zealand selectors have named six spinning options in their squad keeping in mind the upcoming women T20 World Cup and this series can rightly be termed as the precursor to the mega event.

New Zealand have had an upper hand over the home side if we talk about the last meetings between the two sides. The White Ferns have managed to win last three T20 series against the Aussie women with the latest being a 2-1 drubbing on Australian soil in early 2017. With psychological advantage favouring them, they would be eyeing for their fourth consecutive series victory over the home side.

Fantasy Picks

Wicket-keeper:

• It is safe to pick Alyssa Healy in your fantasy eleven because she is a top order batter and there is no surety of who will be keeping wickets for New Zealand between Katey Martin and Bernadine Bezuidenhout.

Batters:

• The safe bets in this department are Suzie Bates as we know how destructive she is at the top order, you can go with Meg Lanning also who will be featuring in Australian colours on home soil after early 2017. You can also go with Maddy Green who is also blazing batter and is an ample choice for T20.

All-rounders:

• In this category, Elyse Perry is the ample choice who is considered as the MVP of Australian women side. Sophie Devine the experienced cog also plays a vital role for New Zealand with both bat and ball so she is a safe bet as well.

Bowlers:

• Megan Shutt, Leigh Kasperek are the safe bets in this category as both the bowlers are assured to feature in their respective sides.
