What Have The Two Teams Done Recently?
New Zealand Women
New Zealand had entered this series after getting themselves a title win in the T20 World Cup but followed that up with a 2-1 series loss in this format against India Women.
This year, New Zealand Women have featured in nine games and lost seven of them with their only wins coming against India and England.
With a really poor record against their trans-Tasman rivals, it was no surprise they had entered the series as second favourites but then saw the first game abandoned due to rain. They were in a soup when they fell to 122 for five in reply to Australia’s 291 for seven when the weather turned again to lose it by 65 runs..
Australia Women
They are coming into this game after seeing their opening game of this series abandoned before they crushed their opponents in the second game.
That was after Australia Women entered this series having played 10 ODIs so far and won nine of them. This includes a 3-0 win over India Women recently and a 3-0 victory against Bangladesh in March.
Their only defeat came at the hands of South Africa Women.
Australia Women’s overall record in this format reads a brilliant 298-67 after winning the second game.

New Zealand Women vs Australia Women 3rd ODI Preview & Predictions with Latest Odds*
The kind of form that Australia Women are in, it’s no surprise they managed to grab a win even in a rain-affected second match.
Put into bat in Wellington, they got off to a solid start and while they fell to 110 for four in 23 overs at one stage, it had given Annabel Sutherland enough of a base to pull off a ripper of a century. She needed just 81 balls to make 105 and together with the rest of the batters, propelled Australia Women to 291 for seven.
Where NZW also struggled was their best bowler, arguably, Amelia Kerr going for 59 from her 10 overs even as she failed to pick up a wicket.
In response, New Zealand failed to score quickly enough and with five wickets falling before they got to 30 overs, they were left with too much to do. Rain came down at that stage and left them 65 runs short.
It’s a much clearer day for this match and we can expect a full game here which should go Australia Women’s way.
