NZ W vs AUS W 2nd ODI Match Preview
The second ODI clash between New Zealand Women and Australia Women (NZ W vs AUS W) in the 2025 Women’s World Cup shapes up as a pivotal contest. Australia arrive with deep batting resources and all-round strength, while New Zealand will lean on home conditions, spin options, and disciplined bowling to counter the visitors.
New Zealand Women (NZ W):
Sophie Devine (c), Suzie Bates, Eden Carson, Lauren Down, Maddy Green, Brooke Halliday, Bella James, Fran Jonas, Jess Kerr, Amelia Kerr, Rosemary Mair.
Australia Women (AUS W):
Alyssa Healy (c & wk), Tahlia McGrath, Ashleigh Gardner, Kim Garth, Alana King, Phoebe Litchfield, Beth Mooney, Ellyse Perry, Megan Schutt, Annabel Sutherland, Georgia Voll.
Australia’s side blends experience and firepower Healy and Mooney provide a steady opening platform; Ellyse Perry, Gardner and McGrath bring flexibility; their bowling attack looks strong across phases. For New Zealand, Devine leads the charge, with the Kerr sisters offering all-round balance, and Jess Kerr expected to make inroads with the ball.
The match could pivot on how well New Zealand contain Australia’s aggressive top order, and whether their spinners and medium pacers can claim breakthroughs. Conversely, Australia will aim to restrict NZ’s scoring opportunities and accelerate through the middle overs.
