The Mithali Raj-led side has looked of color in both the losses. The batting and bowling have not fired in unison. Barring Mithali, Richa Ghosh, and Deepti Sharma, the rest have not made a mark. The skipper has got very little support from the rest of the batters. Meanwhile, Deepti has been doing the damage without much help from the other spinners Rajeshwari Gayakwad and Poonam Yadav.

The visitors need the likes of Harmanpreet Kaur, Jhulan Goswami, and Shafali Verma to deliver the goods. On the other hand, the hosts have ticked the majority of boxes. Even their experimentation of Amelia Kerr at number three worked well. Suzie Bates and Amy Satterthwaite have also been among the runs. The bowling also looks good with Jess Kerr and Lea Tahuhu among wickets. New Zealand would hope to seal the deal with a win in the third ODI.
