NZ-W vs IN-W Dream11 Prediction: India Women will tour New Zealand to compete in a solo T20I and 3 ODIs, with the only T20I set to kickstart the series from February 9 at the Johns Davies Oval in Queenstown. India Women have lost their last two T20I series to Australia Women (2-0) and England Women (2-1) and what’s striking is that the hosts, New Zealand Women, too find themselves in a similar situation ahead of the match, with them losing out to the English side by 2-0, but leveling the 3-match duels against the Aussies by 1-1. Hopefully, the lone T20I proves fruitful for either side ahead of the three 50-over matches which are to commence from February 12 at the same venue.
Fixture Name: Only T20I, New Zealand Women vs India Women
Competition: New Zealand Women vs India Women
Date: February 9
Time: 5:30 AM IST

It’s the first time that a T20 International would be held at this venue. And with the cloud cover throughout including a bit of shower at the start of the contest, one could expect the batters to opt for an aggressive approach from the very moment. A score of 125-135 could be expected as an ideal tally for this fixture.

Sophie Devine Stats in T20Is
Talk about some of the prolific cricketers in Women’s cricket and one of the initial names that would pop up in mind is the Kiwi skipper. Her stats speak volumes of her competency in the shortest format which makes the batting all-rounder a certain from a fantasy perspective.
Lea Tahuhu Stats in T20Is
A bit of cloud cover is something the pacers cherish and when there is a player of Tahuhu’s caliber in the side, who is adept in getting the ball to move and affecting the early breakthroughs, her inclusion into the fantasy line-up becomes valuable for this matchup.

Smriti Mandhana Stats in T20I
The southpaw has showcased in the international arena how lethal she could be when on song. Her presence at the top-order could help the visitors neutralize the Kiwi pace attack. Mandhana’s a gun player for India Women in T20Is and a must-pick from a fantasy point of view.
Harmanpreet Kaur Stats in T20I
The Indian skipper was in sublime form with the bat in the WBBL 2021-22 to eventually grab hold of the “Player of the Series” award. The right-hand explosive batter is one of the well-known names in the Indian cricketing circles, who could post a threat once settled at the crease.
Clearly, New Zealand Women will make the most of the home conditions. Plus, the presence of some of the big names from the cricketing circuits in Sophie Devine, Suzie Bates, Amy Satterthwaite and Lea Tahuhu, who are all skilled at dismantling any opposition at home, is something that could work in the hosts’ favor. Not to forget, overseas tours haven’t suited the India Women, who have lost their last three T20I series, with two of them being tours to Australia and England. As per NZ-W vs IN-W today match prediction & New Zealand Women vs India Women cricket betting tips, New Zealand Women have been backed as the favorites to win this match.
