THE PREDICTION

Tournament favourites Australia march into the semi-finals following a flawless group stage campaign results wise, with three wins from three including most recently beating Pakistan by a comprehensive 44 runs. New Zealand made it through by virtue of winning two of their three group fixtures, but are coming off the back of a thumping defeat by England. New Zealand’s biggest weakest is clearly the depth of their batting and they came back to bite them against a strong bowling attack as they were restricted to just 71/9. Unfortunately for the White Ferns, Australia boasts a bowling attack as strong as England’s and will know that if they can dismiss both Sophie Devine and Suzie Bates early on, then the wickets should continue to tumble. The Southern Stars however, don’t have such worries within their batting line-up with their lower order all capable of crucial runs as proven across the competition so far. Such depth gives them the edge over the vast majority of sides and is likely to wind up being the catalyst that sees Australia overcome New Zealand and reach the final.
