Odi

Holkar Cricket Stadium

The first of five ODIs of the women’s World Cup to be played in Indore sees defending champions Australia take on neighbours New Zealand in both teams’ first games of the tournament. The match is scheduled to be played at the Holkar Stadium in Indore, India on 1st October from 3:00 PM IST.

Facts:

New Zealand are on a 15-match losing run against Australia in women’s ODI cricket.
With 135 ODIs so far, this is the most commonly played 50-over match in women’s cricket.

Australia Women vs New Zealand Women Chance of Winning

Australia comes into the tournament having won 26 of the 30 ODIs they have played since lifting the trophy in New Zealand for a record seventh time. They’re looking to become the first team since 1988 to win back-to-back titles. Alyssa Healy captains the side with Meg Lanning hanging up her boots and she has a star-studded line-up to lead in the subcontinent.

Winners of the 2000 edition, New Zealand Women’s tournament couldn’t have begun on a more difficult note. The Kiwis finished a lowly 6th in the home World Cup and will be looking for a much-stronger finish. Having lost the previous fifteen encounters against the Aussies, the White Ferns will need to derive confidence from their T20 World Cup win to overcome history and recent form in the 50-over format.

Australia Women vs New Zealand Women Prediction & Betting Tips 2025

The Holkar Stadium hasn’t hosted any women’s ODIs so far. However, the men have seen high-scoring matches play out in each of the 7 matches the venue has hosted. The average score at the venue is 296 with 8 of the 14 innings seeing scores of 288 or more. Hence, we’re expecting the batters to do well in each of the five games that the Holkar Stadium is scheduled to host in the quadrennial tournament.

We’re backing Suzie Bates and Phoebe Litchfield to do well in the game. Bates is one of the few New Zealand batters who have performed against the Australians, having scored 3 hundreds and 7 fifties at an average of over 36. In contrast, Phoebe Litchfield has only played two games against the White Ferns, but has already scored a half century. We wouldn’t put it beyond the duo to go big once again.

Australia Women vs New Zealand Women Match Toss Prediction

Each of the previous five games that saw a result in matches involving the Tasmanian rivals has seen teams batting first end up on the winning side. With it being a new venue and the mercury likely to dip later in the day, we’re expecting the teams to opt to bat first in the afternoon sun.

Weather Report

Indore’s temperature is forecast to be in the mid-twenties during match hours. Rain is likely to steer clear during match hours while winds of around 6 to 8 km per hour will be blowing through.

Australia Women vs New Zealand Women Betting Odds

Australian Women’s team to outscore their opponents for the opening wicket

Each of the previous seven matches has seen Australia’s openers post a better partnership for the first wicket than New Zealand. We would have to go all the way back to October 2020 to see the White Ferns openers give the rest of the team a better foundation than the 7-time World Cup winners. In that period, Australia have put together three fifty-plus and one century stand and we’re backing them to add to that tally in Indore.

Australia Women vs New Zealand Women Top Batters

Beth Mooney to be Australia Women’s top batter

Australia’s most in-form batter this year, Beth Mooney, is our pick to be the best batter in the game. The 31-year-old averages 45 in the previous 10 games, posting 405 runs. In the three most recent matches played in India, Mooney has scored a century and a fifty.

Maddy Green to be New Zealand Women’s top batter

With 320 runs in her last 10 ODIs, Maddy Green is the player to watch out for from the Kiwis. The middle order batter is yet to trouble the Aussie bowlers in the 9 games she has played against the women in yellow. However, with the way she has played this year, she could be in line to get her maiden fifty against their rivals.

Australia Women vs New Zealand Women Top Bowlers

Alana King to be Australia Women’s top bowler

Leg spinner Alana King has taken 18 wickets in her previous 10 ODIs to emerge as the team’s leading wicket-taker in recent games. The 29-year-old should be able to extract some turn from the pitch and trouble the New Zealand batters.

Jess Kerr to be New Zealand Women’s top bowler

New Zealand have not been able to keep the Australian batters quiet in recent games and will need Jess Kerr to step up if they are to break their 15-game losing run against them. The elder of the Kerr sisters took two wickets in each of the two warm-up games and looks in good touch going into the tournament opener.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Australia Women

It would be a rarity that Australia doesn’t enter any women’s ODI game as the favourites. They’re backed heavily by the bookmakers, who are expecting the seven-time world champions to start their defence of the title in style. We’re going with the odds and backing the Aussies to defeat the Kiwis in Indore.

Australia Women to Win - 1.14 (Parimatch)
New Zealand Women to Win - 5.67 (Parimatch)
