Ahead of the first T20I between Australia Women and New Zealand Women, here is the Eden Park pitch report.
New Zealand Women will meet their bitter rivals, Australia Women, in a three-match Twenty20 International series after winning the ODI series and drawing the T20I series against Sri Lanka Women. In the series against Sri Lanka, the New Zealands Women fared well even without key players like Sophie Devine, Amelia Kerr, and Lea Tahuhu. Suzie Bates and Georgia Plimmer led the batting attack, while Hannah Rowe and Jess Kerr both claimed four wickets in the ODI and T20I formats. Under Harmanpreet Kaur, Amelia Kerr and the Mumbai Indians won the WPL 2025.
Eden Park Pitch Report
Eden Park is recognized for its bowler-friendly surface, where early match conditions provide substantial support to bowlers, particularly fast bowlers. Batting can be tough, especially in the second innings, as the pitch becomes harder to score on. Teams opting to bowl first often gain an advantage by limiting the opposition to a modest total. Conversely, chasing teams may find it challenging to reach the target due to the deteriorating pitch conditions.
