Sri Lanka vs New Zealand Women Predictions


Sri Lanka have lost their last four completed matches by big margins. New Zealand lost their first two matches of the World Cup against strong opposition, so they will be determined to pick up points against countries in the bottom half of the table.

Head-to-Head


New Zealand Women have won three and lost one of their last five matches against Sri Lanka Women. The other match was rained-off.  

Sri Lanka Women Form


Sri Lanka picked up their only point thanks to a rained-off match against Australia, but their other four most recent matches all ended in defeat.  

Their last match saw them smashed by England to the tune of 89 runs after England had posted 253/9 off their 50 overs. Inoka Ranaweera (3/33, econ 3.30) starred with the ball for Sri Lanka, knocking over three of England’s top seven batters. 

Hasini Perera (35 off 60) and Harshitha Samarawickrama (33 off 37) put  Sri Lanka in a good position to hunt down their target, but they both perished in the 30s and the middle–order and tail could only add 66 runs for their last six wickets. 

Sri Lanka Women Team News


Sri Lanka are struggling to find winning form and need to take some risks as they seek wins urgently. 

New Zealand Women Form


New Zealand earned their first win of the World Cup when they beat Bangladesh by 100 runs.  

New Zealand recovered from 38/3 to post 227/9, thanks to a 112-run stand for the fourth wicket between the ever-reliable Sophie Devine (63 off 85) and Brooke Halliday (69 off 104).

Jess Kerr (3/21, econ 2.62) knocked over three of Bangladesh’s top four to leave them reeling at 33/6. Bangladesh were bowled out for 127 with 10 overs and one ball in hand.  

New Zealand Women Team News


Despite two losses, New Zealand are playing well with bat and ball and are unlikely to make any changes to their team. 

Verdict

I am backing New Zealand Women to win. I am also backing Sophie Devine to top score for New Zealand Women.

Nilakshika Silva is a good bet to top score for the Sri Lanka Women.
