Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

Australia Capital Territory (ACT) Women have lost three consecutive matches after starting the tournament with two back-to-back wins. They will face the table-toppers New South Wales (NSW) Women in their next game at the Manuka Oval in Canberra. The ACT Women will have to win their remaining games at any cost to make it to the top two and qualify for the final.

However, their task seems to be tougher as the NSW Women are way too strong and are on a three-match winning streak. These two sides last met on January 14 and the NSW side easily chased down the 178-run target. They would be looking to continue their winning momentum and in the process, strengthen their top place in the table.

Weather Report/Condition

The forecast for this match is absolutely clear. Though there will be intermittent clouds to start with, the sun will come out later in the afternoon. There is no chance of rain at all even as the temperature will hover in the late 20s according to AccuWeather.


Pitch Report

The surface at the Manuka Oval has been decent for batting. But the pitch slows down and it gets tough to bat in the second innings. The team winning the toss is expected to bat first as the chasing teams have lost both the matches at this venue so far.

Average first innings score: 214 (In two matches played at the venue this WNCL season)

Record of the chasing teams: Won – 0; Lost – 2
