1. 1st Over: New Zealand 22-2 (Bates 12, Plimmer 0). Bates strikes quickly to defend her team’s lead, hitting two boundaries off her pads before taking one through cover for single. Against more fluctuation from delivery 2, she still manages to direct it towards the rope for yet another boundary run.

Historically, competition between these teams has provided a platform to display some of the finest talent in international cricket. Their matchups have also served as opportunities to hone batting strategies and bowling techniques; however, Australian success in limited-overs cricket has altered this dynamic.

New Zealand women have struggled to keep pace with Australia in recent years. Since 2024-2025, no White Ferns team have won an ODI against their fierce rivals while Australia have claimed all five T20Is played between the teams – showing there is now an apparent gap in quality between them both teams.

Beth Mooney and Georgia Voll both made significant contributions with the bat for Australia. Together they shared an opening stand of 123 runs to put Australia well within reach by drinks break. Mooney made history when she reached her first 50 in T20Is via a boundary off ball three of the powerplay while Voll recorded her maiden T20 half century off 28 deliveries.

New Zealand struggled to meet their required run rate during the chase, failing to match the White Ferns batsmen who performed brilliantly in their previous ODI. Early in the Powerplay they slumped to 4-54 before Kerr and Green staged an outstanding recovery before spinner Georgia Wareham struck with an eye-catching direct hit catch at striker’s end that ended their partnership.

Even with their loss, New Zealand can find comfort from several positives. Their recent record against Australia in T20 Internationals is impressive: five out of six victories against them! Their last defeat came against Australia back in 2014 during an exciting final in Auckland.

Their ruthless batting led by Beth Mooney and Georgia Voll has given them the edge in T20 battles; further cementing their supremacy over New Zealand across all forms.
