NZW vs BANW 3rd T20 Match Prediction

NZW vs BANW Team Previews

New Zealand Women

New Zealand Women are among the top-4 teams of Women's cricket while Bangladesh Women are still developing as a cricket team. There is no doubt that New Zealand has the stronger batting lineup, the better bowling unit, and is more experienced. 

Can New Zealand Women lose to Bangladesh Women? Sure, starenger things have happened but is it something that we would bet on? Absolutely not. Sophie Devine, Suzie Bates, and Amelia Kerr lead the batting unit for New Zealand and Lea Tahuhu, Fran Jonas, Sophie Devine, and Amelia Kerr form the core of the bowling unit.

This team should be able to beat Bangladesh 9 times out of ten.

Bangladesh Women

Bangladesh Women are out of their element and are struggling. The batting has not yet developed enough depth and while there are a few talented players, a collapse always seems around the corner. The three players that are perhaps the best batters in Bangladesh's team right now are Sharmin Akhter, Nigar Sultana, and Fargana Hoque. 

Neither of these batters is yet world-class but can play the odd good inning. 

The bowling unit for Bangladesh is very spin-heavy and struggles in New Zealand conditions. Wickets have been hard to come by and the Bangladesh team has also given up a lot of runs in most matches. It is hard to see how that will change overnight.
