England Women are gearing up to host New Zealand Women in a three-match ODI series, beginning on June 26 at the Riverside Ground in Chester-Le-Street. The series promises to be an exciting contest between two competitive teams.
Earlier this year, England toured New Zealand for a bilateral series, which included three ODI games and five T20I matches. The English team emerged victorious in both formats, winning the ODI series 4-1 and the T20I series 2-1.
The upcoming series offers the White Ferns an opportunity to avenge their previous defeats. They will be eager to challenge the English side on their home turf and aim to reverse their fortunes.
Heather Knight will continue to lead the England team, bringing her experience and strategic acumen to the series. On the other hand, Sophie Devine will captain the White Ferns, aiming to inspire her team to a strong performance.
