NZ-W vs BAN-W Prediction: New Zealand Women eye their first win of the ICC Women's World Cup 2025.
The next game of the ICC Women's World Cup 2025 will be played between Bangladesh Women and the 2000 winner, New Zealand. This game will be live from Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati, on October 10 (Friday), starting at 3 PM IST. This is an important game for both sides, as they are coming off a defeat in their last game. New Zealand are more desperate to win this game.
They have played two games so far and have suffered defeats in both matches. They are not left with many choices, and a win here is almost mandatory for their survival in this tournament. Bangladesh women have had a pretty decent run so far. After beating Pakistan in their opening game, they brought England Women down to their knees and were close to their second consecutive win. But they can take positives from that game and move forward.
