Time: 7:30 AM (IST)

Venue: Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui

Preview:

Australia Women have pocketed yet another series as they continue their dominance in the ODI format. This is there 23rd straight win in this format and there is absolutely no stopping them. They are coming on the back off a 71-run victory against the Kiwi women in the 2nd ODI.

Batting first, Australia Women posted 271 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. The openers gave a solid start and scored 82 runs before the first wicket fell. Rachael Haynes and Alyssa Healy scored 87 and 44 runs respectively. Jess Jonassen was the star performer with the ball after she notched up 3 wickets. Georgia Wareham also took 2 wickets.

The Kiwis really look clueless in front of an indomitable force like Australia. Amelia Kerr top-scored with 47 runs. It seems like they are really missing the valuable services of their skipper, Sophie Devine. The dead rubber between Australia Women and New Zealand Women will be taking place on the 10th of April.
