WIW vs AUSW 2nd T20 Match Prediction

WIW vs AUSW Team Previews

West Indies Women

West Indies' effort with the bat was remarkably similar to how they did in the ODI series. They never looked confident in the middle, which was apparent with their shot selection, as they found half of their side back in the hut even before the powerplay got over. Stephanie Taylor, with a brilliant knock, somehow managed to take them to a respectable total, which, however, didn't eventually prove to be enough.

With the ball, West Indies did slightly better as compared to how they did in the ODI series as they managed to dismiss four Australian batsmen. Henry was the pick of their bowlers as she returned with the important two wickets at the expense of just 15 runs.

All in all, West Indies improved with the change in format, mostly with the bat, but their improvement was clearly not enough to contain the Aussies who are in rampaging mood at the moment. Going into the final two matches of the series, the hosts will have to play out of their skins to make any mark whatsoever in the series.

Australia Women

It was a rare occasion in the series that Australia's openers were both dismissed cheaply. Chasing a relatively small total, Australian women lost both their openers inside the first three overs before being bailed out by Meg Lanning and Elyssa Perry as the duo shared a 57-run stand for the third wicket.

Australia lost a couple of more wickets towards the end, but the presence of Meg Lanning at the crease never allowed pressure to creep in as the Aussies eventually won the match with considerable ease.

Earlier with the ball, Australians were super-effective in the powerplay overs as they dismissed half of the West Indies' side without too many runs on the board. Even though they had a bit of trouble in dismissing the tail, which took Windies to a manageable total, they wouldn't be too concerned about it. Overall, Australian women have been miles ahead of West Indies as far as the performance of the two sides in this tour is concerned and we might see them posting a familiar result in the upcoming match as well.
