NZ-W vs SL-W 17th Match Probable Winners:

It will be interesting to see how Sri Lanka Women react to their 10-wicket defeat to Australia Women on Thursday. Before that game, they had surprised many with their win over South Africa Women in their opener and were too strong for Bangladesh Women. Sri Lanka Women have some good experienced players but New Zealand Women have players with more talent across their team. New Zealand Women finally managed to snap out of their poor batting showing and displayed just how strong a batting unit they have in their last game. If Suzie Bates gets going again then she will be very hard to stop. Considering the team combination, New Zealand-W is expected to win this match.
