England A Women vs Australia A Women Pitch Report
Not a great deal of one-day cricket has been played at this venue. But taking into consideration the data from the past two one-day games, the venue is certainly not a high-scoring one. The average first-innings total is a record low of 98 while the highest score ever achieved on the ground is 156.
We may be in for a very early finish if bowlers get off to a flyer. Batting could prove to be very tricky on this pitch, especially with gloomy overhead conditions which would provide the seamers with additional assistance.
England A Women vs Australia A Women Weather Report
The probability of moderate to heavy rainfall is very much a likelihood at this stage as rain probability is hovering at 50%. The gloomy cloud cover can impact the game and the playing conditions, and we may be in for a shortened game. The average temperature would be around 20 C.

England A Women vs Australia A Women Prediction
England A Women will be playing on home soil against a severely dented Australia Women A side. In the recently concluded three-day match, Australia Women were rolled over by England Women’s mammoth total of 650.
They batted twice and failed to get anywhere close to that total. Although the game ended in a stalemate, Australia Women were on the brink of losing it. Furthermore, they also ended up on the losing side in the three-match T20 series last week which saw England Women A comfortably clinch it 3-0.
Given the form England Women are in at the moment, they are the clear favorites to come out on top in this contest.
Prediction: England Women A to win the match.
