Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

Australia Women will get their campaign underway in the second match of the ongoing tri-nation series against England Women. England, led by Heather Knight, suffered a defeat at the hands of India Women on Friday. Their top-order batters couldn’t do much in the game with the likes of Amy Jones and Danielle Wyatt getting out early. Knight played a captain’s knock along with Tammy Beaumont to propel the team to a competitive total.

Though they failed to defend the total, Sophie Ecclestone and Sarah Glenn did well with the ball. Katherine Brunt picked a couple of wickets but she was expensive. Australia Women, on the other hand, will be keen to get themselves going from the word go ahead of the T20 World Cup which will follow this series. They are also the favourites to win this game.

Weather Report

It will be extremely hot in Canberra on Saturday. The temperature will be soaring high up to 38 and 39 Degrees Celsius during the match according to AccuWeather. There is no chance of rain whatsoever.

Average first innings score: 138 (Women’s T20s since 2017)

Record of the chasing teams: Won – 4; Lost – 3

Top Picks

Alyssa Healy’s last six T20 innings scores read – 1, 84, 0, 0, 2, 10, 4. But she opens the innings and is always crucial for Australia. Lanning scored 93* off 66 in the practice game and even Ellyse Perry scored 65 off 39 balls and all these players should be picked in Dream11 Fantasy team. With the ball, Molineux could be key along with Mega Schutt.

For England, Heather Knight scored 67 off just 44 balls and also picked a wicket with the ball. Danielle Wyatt should be amongst the runs after a failure in the opener. Sciver is always a must in Fantasy teams with her all-round skills. With the ball, Brunt and Ecclestone should play an important role for England.
