New Zealand women and England women are all set to continue their ongoing three-game ODI series as they gear up to face off in the third and final ODI at the Seddon Park in Hamilton on Sunday, April 07. Hosts, New Zealand’s performance through the series has been exceptionally poor as they suffered losses in the first two ODIs. With their regular skipper Sophie Devine’s return for the final game, the Kiwis will be looking to end the series on a high.

On the other hand, England has been brilliant since the T20I series, winning it 4-1. The first ODI saw visitors claim a narrow victory in Wellington. In the last game, with the help of Tammy Beaumont’s knock of 81 runs, England registered their second victory of the series. As the third clash rolls around, the Heather Knight-led side will aim to seal the series.
