The third T20I between New Zealand Women and Australia Women is set to take place on March 26, at the Sky Stadium in Wellington. This match is crucial as Australia leads the series 2-0 and aims for a clean sweep, while New Zealand seeks to avoid a series whitewash.
Australia have been dominant in the series so far, winning the first two matches convincingly. They will look to maintain their momentum with strong performances from key players like Beth Mooney and Annabel Sutherland, who have shown consistent form.
New Zealand, on the other hand, are under pressure to perform better and secure at least one victory in this series. Their batting lineup will need to step up, particularly players like Sophie Devine and Amelia Kerr, to challenge the Australian bowlers effectively.

Sky Stadium Pitch Report:
The first T20I pitch should be a batting heaven, making it difficult for bowlers to hold back the batters. With true bounce available, it will be an easier task to make shots, and batters can play through the line fearlessly. Also, the relatively small ground size will keep the power hitters from both sides involved in the game.
