As the thrilling ongoing ODI series between India Women and New Zealand Women comes to an end, all eyes will be on the third and final match set to take place on Tuesday at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. With the series finely poised at 1-1, both teams have everything to play for as they look to seal the series win.

The series kicked off with India Women taking a commanding lead in the first ODI, delivering a fine performance. However, New Zealand Women responded with grit and determination in the second match, levelling the series. They beat India by 76 runs to level the series 1-1. 

For India, the spotlight will be on their seasoned players, including the likes of captain Harmanpreet Kaur, Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana, all of whom failed in the second match.

Additionally, the performance of their bowlers will be key to their strategy.
