I ‘d still put my money on NZ against Bangladesh despite the poor show so far.
Sruthi Ravindranath is free to take the other road. NZ is still in the game.
Fates can change. And they do. In any sport, not just cricket.
Either way below is a screen grab on where the things stand for the Kiwis.

Two of New Zealand’s very best 🇳🇿

My money is still on NZ. They got the stuff it takes to build their momentum; hopefully pushing themselves up the ladder, closer to gold as the matches continue. Still a lot of action left.
Recommended Bet:
New Zealand Women to Win @ ~1.20-1.30 odds (low-risk favorite; implied probability ~75-80%)
Why? Despite their rust (no ODIs in six months pre-tournament) and fielding lapses (7 misfields vs South Africa), New Zealand’s superior depth and experience should prevail on a tricky pitch.
