NZ-W vs SA-W Dream11 Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11 and Pitch Report for ICC Women's World Cup, Match 16

The 16th match of the Women's World Cup 2022 will see New Zealand Women (NZ-W) locking horns with South Africa Women (SA-W) at Seddon Park in Hamilton on Thursday.

South Africa have been brilliant in the tournament, winning all three of their games so far. However, they face a stern test against hosts New Zealand, who have blown hot and cold in the tournament. Despite not playing to their full potential so far, the White Ferns will start as favorites. But against a side that boast Laura Wolvaardt and Marizanne Kapp, New Zealand have their task cut out. Both teams will be keen to get the win in what promises to be a cracking game in Hamilton.

Pitch Report

As seen in previous games, the pitch at Seddon Park is a decent one to bat on despite there being help on offer for the bowlers. The batters will look to bide their time in the middle early on, with the pacers likely to get some swing and bounce with the new ball. As the match progresses, the spinners will come into play given the turn on offer. Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 240-250 being a good total at the venue.
