Women's T20 WC: New Zealand Elect To Bat Against Sri Lanka In Southampton
T20 World Cup: New Zealand won the toss and elected to bat against Sri Lanka in the seventh match of Group 2 of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026 at The Rose Bowl, Southampton, on Tuesday.
After winning the toss, New Zealand captain Amelia Kerr opted to bat first, citing similarities with the conditions from the previous match. Kerr felt the surface looked good for batting and backed her side to put up a strong total. While she expected the wicket to slow down slightly as the game progressed, she remained hopeful that it would stay true despite the reduced 40-over format.
Reflecting on New Zealand's previous outing, Kerr admitted the team's fielding standards had slipped. She said dropped catches and inconsistent bowling had cost her side valuable runs, but stressed that it was not a skill issue. Backing the same playing XI, Kerr expressed confidence that her team could bounce back by improving their execution and intensity in the field.
