New Zealand vs England: New Zealand will lock horns with England in the fifth T20I of the five-match series at the Basin Reserve, Wellington, New Zealand on Friday, March 29. Following their 47-run victory in the last match, England currently leads the series 3-1. A win in the upcoming game would boost morale for the White Ferns as both teams prepare to transition into the 50-overs format.

The hosts, New Zealand, missed out on a chance to level the series in the last game in Wellington. They lost while chasing a 150-run target in the 2nd T20I but successfully managed to defend a 155-run total in the very next game at the same venue. The New Zealand batters failed to live up to the expectations once again and will look to improve their performance. Though the home team has already lost the series but will aim to emerge victorious taking the momentum further for the ODI series.

On the other hand, England have bounced back to win the 4th T20I. The visitors batted first and posted a formidable total of 177 runs for 3 wickets in their allotted 20 overs. The standout performance came from Maia Bouchier, who played a scintillating knock of 91 runs off 56 balls. Her aggressive innings powered England to a commanding position. Nat-Sciver Brunt also delivered a quick-fire knock in the middle-order. The English team will look to finish the series on a winning note.
