Australia
England will clash with Australia in the Women’s T20 World Cup final on Sunday. Both teams have been in better form, having won their last five games. Moreover, Australia has won the last ten head-to-head games over England. Can Australia win this final? Below are previews, betting tips, and odds.
England Preview
England secured a 40-run win in their last game against South Africa to secure their place in the final stage, putting them on a winning run of seven straight games. In their last game, their opponent, South Africa, won the toss and chose to bat first, then took three easy wickets, hoping to put England in a big storm. Nat Sciver-Brunt and Heather Knight paired for good as they pushed up to win the game, scoring 133 runs together to help England reach 169 runs at the end of the 20 overs. When it’s their opponent's time to bat, they need to overtake the score but fail to build anything substantial against their disciplined bowling. Their opponent failed to convert a wicket as they lost it, managing to score 129 runs before their time ran out, resulting in victory for England. England have been in good form, having won their last seven games.
England XI
Amy Jones (WK), Danielle Wyatt Hodge, Natalie Sciver (C), Alice Capsey, Heather Knight, Freya Kemp, Danielle Gibson, Charlotte Dean, Sophie Ecclestone, Linsey Smith, Lauren Bell.
Australia Preview
Australia won by eight wickets in their last game over West Indies, putting them on a winning run of 18 straight games. In their last game, their opponent went first but was dismissed by Australia's disciplined bowlers, who continued to take wickets and bring the scoring rate down. Their opponent managed to reach 125 runs, whereas Australia scored 125 runs in 13 overs, overtaking them. Australia have been in good form, having won their last 18 games.
Australia XI
Georgia Voll, Beth Mooney (WK), Phoebe Litchfield, Ellyse Perry, Ashleigh Gardner, Georgia Wareham, Annabel Sutherland, Nicola Carey, Sophie Molineux (C), Kim Garth, Lucy Hamilton.
England vs Australia Prediction
Both teams have been in better form recently, but I’m still going to support Australia to win here as they have won their last 18 games. Not only that, but they dominate England in their head-to-head series, having won the last 10 games. With this royal dominance in the head-to-head series, I believe Australia will win this final. My prediction is a win for Australia, with 1xBet offering odds of 1.46.
