By IANS News June 12, 2026 • 18:58 PM View: 93

T20 World Cup: Defending champions New Zealand will begin their ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026 campaign against West Indies in the fourth match of the tournament at the Rose Bowl on Saturday.

Having lifted their maiden Women's T20 World Cup title in the UAE in 2024, the White Ferns enter the competition with confidence and will be eager to make a strong start to the defence of their crown. Led by star all-rounder Melia Kerr, New Zealand are among the favourites to progress from a competitive Group 2.

West Indies, captained by Hayley Matthews, will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing 3-0 T20I series defeat to England earlier this year. The Caribbean side possess several match-winners and will be keen to upset the defending champions in their opening fixture.
