IND vs NZ, Women’s World Cup 2025: The 24th match of the Women’s ODI World Cup 2025 between India and New Zealand is being played in Navi Mumbai. It is very important for both the teams to register a win to keep their semi-final hopes alive. Harmanpreet Kaur-led Team India is coming after losing the last 3 matches, while New Zealand had defeated Bangladesh in the last match. In such a situation, there is a possibility of an exciting match. The Indian team has made one change in the form of Amanjot Kaur. Jemimah Rodrigues has come in her place. Whereas Kiwis have come with the same playing 11.
Indian top order batsmen will have to perform their best
If we want to win the match against New Zealand, then the top order batsmen of Team India will have to perform their best. Especially openers Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal will have to give a good start. Smriti has played innings of 80 and 88 runs in the last two matches, so the team will expect similar performance with the bat. Harmanpreet Kaur’s bat also played in the last match. Would like to maintain that momentum in this match. At the same time, Harleen Deol will have to show her strength with the bat at number 3.
It will not be easy to spoil the rhythm of New Zealand bowlers
There are good bowling options in the New Zealand team. All eyes will be on Lia Tahuhu and Eden Carson in particular. Both have shown good performance in the last few matches. Apart from them, Jess Kerr and Sophie Devine have also been making amazing contributions with the ball. It will be very important for the Indian batsmen to spoil the rhythm of these bowlers.

After the bat, Indian bowlers will have to do wonders
If Team India wants to keep its semi-final hopes alive, it will have to perform brilliantly with the bat as well as the ball. The responsibility of fast bowling will be on the shoulders of Radhika Singh Thakur and Nallapureddy Charni, while Deepti Sharma and Sneh Kaur will have to create a stir with the ball in this match too. Deepti bowled brilliantly against England. He had trapped 4 batsmen in his net, while also contributed 50 runs with the bat. Something similar will have to be done in front of Kiwis also.
