New Zealand has announced the team for the Women's T20 World Cup. Looking at the 15 players of the team, it is clear that New Zealand has given more importance to experience than enthusiasm. This is because there is only one player among the 15 players who do not have previous experience playing in the T20 World Cup. Except for the wicketkeeper-batsman of the team, everyone else has experience of playing T20 World Cup before. The return of Rosemary Meyer after 6 months has strengthened the bowling of the team. At the same time, there are 2 players who will be seen playing in the Women's T20 World Cup for the 9th time.

In the Women's T20 World Cup starting in October, the New Zealand team will stake its claim under the captaincy of Sophie Devine. Sophie Devine is one of the two players who will be seen playing in her 9th Women's T20 World Cup. Apart from her, the other player is Suzie Bates, for whom this will be the 9th Women's T20 World Cup. This will be the last T20 World Cup for Sophie Devine as captain. In such a situation, she would definitely want to end her captaincy career with a title win.

The player who has returned to the New Zealand team after 6 months is Rosemary Meyer. Rosemary suffered a back injury in the home T20 series against England in March this year. She was not with the team since then. But, now she has returned. This is good news for New Zealand's pace attack as it has increased the strength of its fast bowling. Rosemary has played 24 T2OIs for New Zealand so far, in which she has taken 18 wickets. Rosemary made her T20I debut against India.

New Zealand has chosen Izzy Gaze as their wicketkeeper for the Women's T20 World Cup. Izzy Gaze is the only player in her team who does not have experience of playing in the T20 World Cup. Head coach Ben Sawyer is very happy to see the combination and strength of his team. He said that I am very happy to tell you that we have selected our best 15, which has the strength to play and win matches in any condition.

New Zealand's first match against India on October 4

The Women's T20 World Cup is scheduled to begin on October 3. Before that, New Zealand will play its first warm-up match against South Africa on September 29 and its second warm-up match against England on October 1. After this, New Zealand will play its first match against India on October 4.
