New Zealand Women will take on England Women in the 3rd game of the three-game ODI series, which will be played at the University Oval in Dunedin.
England Women have already won the series, whereas the New Zealand women will play for respect. The all-rounders of England give them much more balance, whereas the Whiteferns are missing some of their key players in this series. This should be an easy game for the visitors.
Pitch Report – The pitch is a very good batting surface, whereas there is a little help for the pacers too.
