ICC Women's World Cup 2009 - Teams
New Zealand
New Zealand is one of the top four sides in the world and will be highly fancied as a team capable of winning the ICC Women's World Cup.
It came close to reaching the 2005 final, but a poor batting display in the semi-final against India saw it lose by 40 runs.
All-rounders Aimee Mason, Sarah Tsukigawa and Nicola Browne will be important players for the experienced White Ferns.
The loss of Rebecca Rolls, who has retired, is hugely disappointing for the Kiwis but it has the ability to make an impression on the event.
The annual Rose Bowl series against Australia, which was tied 2-2 in February 2009, means that the team is familiar with Australian conditions and players and the Kiwis will be a tough outfit to defeat.
