The 10th match of the Women T20 World Cup 2024 turns out to be a face off between the women’s teams of Australia and New Zealand. This much-awaited cricket match will happen on the 8th of October at Sharjah Cricket Stadium and will be quite lively. The two teams have also released themselves in the competition since they have played and won their first match.
New Zealand Women proved their prowess and determination after thrashing India Women in their opening match. Meanwhile, Australia Women comfortably beat Sri Lanka Women in their first match to prove their championship pedigree. For both teams, this game was quite useful, and now they are going to take some efforts in order to clinch their second triumph of the year.
The players of the two teams will make increased tries, which actual end users may look forward to. Australia’s defending champions will aim at extending their dominance of the event, while the Kiwis will target enhancement of their opening statement.
AUS-W vs NZ-W head-to-head record:
Australia Women and New Zealand Women have a rich history, having met 51 times in T20 matches. The defending champions, Australia Women, have a tiny lead with 29 victories. However, New Zealand women have demonstrated resilience and competence, winning 21 matches.
One encounter between the two sides resulted in a no-result. This historical setting sets the stage for their next match, in which both teams will seek to assert their supremacy and earn a significant edge in the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024.
Who will win the match?
Australia Women, the defending champions, are favored to defeat New Zealand Women. Alyssa Healy leads a strong team now which has strength in its bowling and hitting arsenal and most of them have prior experience of playing in the Big leagues like Matthews, Lanning, Perry, etc.
On the other hand, New Zealand women should not be underrated. They do have the potential, especially because of player resources such as Sophie Devine and Amelia Kerr, who can produce an upset.
In this case, Australia is likely to find the going slightly easier because of their settled roster and World Cup-winning experience, but New Zealand will contest it. This match will be very close and exciting to watch, as this time, New Zealand will definitely prove their fighting spirit because Australia is likely to win the game.
