Preview
New Zealand women are all set to turn their fortunes against Australian women in the third and final ODI of the series, slated to take place on December 23 at Basin Reserve in Wellington. Alyssa Healy and her women won the second ODI and took a 1-0 lead in the DLS-inflicted match after the series opener was abandoned due to rain.
Coming to the team dynamics, the White Ferns are facing a challenging period, having suffered back-to-back ODI defeats against Team India and England. Sophie Devine and her women also suffered defeat against Australia in the last thriller, but they will be keen to break their 14-match losing streak against their formidable rivals.
On the other hand, the reigning ODI World Cup champions have been in impressive form. They recently swept Team India 3-0 at home before thwarting the Kiwis in the second ODI game. They will be keen to mark a clean sweep against the hosts in the third ODI.
