The wicket is slightly on the slower side, as seen in T20I series. The pacers will ideally get some swing with the new ball, and both sides will bank on their spinners to restrict the run-scoring in the middle overs. However, batters can get runs if they get settled in the middle.

New Zealand –
Sophie Devine and Amy Satterthwaite looked in sweet form and will be looking to carry that forward. They’d need to pull themselves up in the bowling department and if they can do that, Australia would have their work cut out. As usual, Bates will be their senior pro to deliver.
Australia –
The hosts are set to miss the services of their ace player Perry, who is suffering from a hamstring injury. However, they have big guns like Mooney, Gardner, Haynes and Lanning to make things happen for the team. In bowling, Schutt will carry the burden.
