NZ-W vs SA-W Match Prediction: Match no. 7 of the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 will see two strong contenders in New Zealand and South Africa go toe-to-toe in what promises to be a gripping encounter in Indore.
These two teams met in last year’s Women’s T20 World Cup final in Dubai, where Amelia Kerr ran the show and helped the White Ferns to the title. Both teams have retained the majority of their makeup from that competition.
Both, however, have started this tournament on a discouraging note: New Zealand lost by 89 runs against Australia, and South Africa suffered a shocking 10-wicket defeat at the hands of England.
New Zealand women have the upper hand over South Africa women in Women’s ODI, with 12 wins and eight losses.
New Zealand are expected to strengthen their bowling, with the experienced Rosemary Mair likely to replace the inexperienced Bree Illing.
South Africa will look to make amends for their batting disaster against England. Anneke Bosch may make way for Annerie Dercksen.
