England Women’s unbeaten run at the Women’s T20 Commonwealth Games came to an end when they lost the first semi-final against India Women by four runs in what was a close encounter.

New Zealand Women, on the other hand, faced Australia Women in the second semi-final. They failed to put enough runs on the board and it was a comfortable five-wicket win for Australia Women in the end.

Both teams will have an opportunity to end their respective campaigns on a high and one team will walk away with the bronze medal.

EN-W vs NZ-W Match Prediction

England Women have been dominant throughout the competition. They put up a great fight with both the bat and the ball against India in the semi-final as well and missed out by a very short margin in the end.

The New Zealand Women were not able to put Australia under any pressure in their semi-final clash. England Women beat New Zealand Women in the final league stage game earlier as well and will start as favorites to claim the bronze medal.

Prediction: England Women to win this encounter.
