England Women vs Australia Women, 1st ODI: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, and Live Streaming Details
England Women and Australia Women are set to face each other in the first game of a three-match ODI series on Wednesday, July 12. The County Ground in Bristol will host the contest.
Heather Knight’s England will be high on confidence after beating Australia 2-1 in the three-match T20I series. It was for the first time since 2017 that the Aussies lost a bilateral series. Australia were leading the series 1-0 before losing the plot.
The hosts will be looking to make amends in the 50-over format, where they are the world champions. Beth Mooney was the leading run-scorer in the T20I series and Australia’s fate in the ODIs will also depend on her.
Left-arm spinner Jess Jonassen also bowled beautifully for the Aussies, although her efforts could not pay dividends.
England, on the other hand, will be looking to carry on from where they left off in the shortest format. The likes of Danni Wyatt and Sophie Ecclestone have been in good form for them.
