With the series tied at 1-1, both teams will be eager to clinch the decider in what promises to be an exciting showdown.
Sri Lanka Women made a remarkable comeback in the first T20I after a 2-0 ODI series defeat, securing a dominant seven-wicket victory. Skipper Chamari Athapaththu led the charge with an unbeaten 64 off 48 balls, while Malki Madara’s 3/14 restricted the White Ferns to a mere 101 runs. However, New Zealand bounced back in the second T20I, setting up a thrilling finale.

The University Oval pitch is expected to favour batters, with some assistance for pacers early on. As the game progresses, spinners might find some grip. Weather conditions in Dunedin indicate a cool evening with a slight chance of light showers, but a full game is expected.
New Zealand Women, led by Suzie Bates, will look to capitalise on home conditions. Despite their batting setbacks in the first T20I, the hosts bounced back strongly in the second match. Maddy Green and Georgia Plimmer have been in good touch, while Jess Kerr and Eden Carson will be crucial in the bowling attack. Their biggest challenge will be countering Sri Lanka's spin-heavy attack.
On the other hand, Sri Lanka Women have been highly competitive, with Chamari Athapaththu leading from the front. The skipper played a match-winning knock in the first T20I, while Harshitha Samarawickrama and Kavisha Dilhari have provided valuable support in the middle order. Malki Madara and Sugandika Kumari have been standout performers with the ball, troubling New Zealand's batters with their variations.
