WI-W vs NZ-W Dream11 Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11, Player Stats, Pitch Report for New Zealand Women tour of West Indies 2022, 1st ODI
West Indies Women (WI-W) will lock horns with New Zealand Women (NZ-W) in the first ODI of the New Zealand Women tour of West Indies 2022 at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua on Friday, September 16. Ahead of the match, here's all you need to know about the WI-W vs NZ-W Dream11 Fantasy Prediction, today's playing 11s and the pitch report for the 1st ODI.
The last time West Indies Women played a women’s ODI match was back in March earlier this year. On that occasion, they defeated New Zealand by a slim margin of three runs. Following the retirement of Deandra Dottin, star all-rounder Hayley Matthews has been appointed as the new captain and she will be leading the side here against the White Ferns here.
New Zealand Women failed to make much of an impression during the ODI World Cup held back in March and they haven’t played in the 50-over format since then. Sophie Devine is leading a strong squad on the tour of the Caribbean and the White Ferns have won four of their last five ODI matches against West Indies and will be the favorites here as well.
