New Zealand at the 2017 Women's World Cup of cricket: Statistical review

If the 2013 Women's World Cup was bad for New Zealand, the 2017 edition was worse. In 2013, New Zealand, for the first time in the tournament's history, failed to finish in the top-4. In 2017, they ended up fifth at the end of the event.

New Zealand's performance of three wins, three losses, and one no-result placed them in the fifth position on the table and knocked them out of the running for the title.

The wins came against Sri Lanka (won by 9 wickets), West Indies (won by 8 wickets), and Pakistan (won by 8 wickets). The losses were against Australia (by 5 wickets), England (by 75 runs), and India (by 186 runs). Their match against South Africa ended with no result.
