Their recent 6-wicket victory over New Zealand further boosts confidence, proving they can handle pressure against this opponent.
While Isabella Gaze's impressive 101 in New Zealand's warm-up shows their batting threat, India's depth and consistency give them the edge. With Renuka Singh Thakur leading a disciplined bowling attack and key batters peaking at the right time, India Women are well placed to outplay New Zealand and secure another crucial win.
