INDW vs NZW LIVE: In a rain-truncated match, Harmanpreet Kaur & Co. went on to register a four wicket win over New Zealand, while chasing a target of 233. Kranti Gaud and Shree Charani were excellent with the ball, bagging five wickets together, while Uma Chetry, Harman and Harleen Deol scored runs with the bat.
India women’s cricket team will be hoping to bounce back after a loss against England as they take on New Zealand in their second warm-up game before the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup. Harmanpreet Kaur and co’s preparations for the marquee tournament started off on a wrong note as they were handed a 153-run defeat by ENGW. With just over a couple of days left for the WC, India will be hoping to clinch a win against NZ and head into the event riding high on confidence.
One thing to note is, in these practice matches, all the squad members can be utilised, and hence there are no playing XIs. India have a strong spin attack as usual, and a batting line up that just does the job, but the problem will be the pace-bowling and all-rounders. India does not have Pooja Vastrakar, who is out injured, and top-6 of the batting order don’t bowl. So that doesn’t give the team the ideal balance. But then, this is still a very strong squad, when compared to other teams.
