Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

Things are beginning to heat in the 2020 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. With the league-stage approaching its business end, the outcome of every game has a bearing on the overall points table and with that in mind, South Africa will lock horns with Thailand at the Manuka Oval in Canberra.

South Africa are flying high after pulling off their maiden T20 World Cup win against perennial heavyweights England in their tournament opener thanks to a brilliant performance by their bowlers- led by Ayabonga Khaka [3-25], Marizanne Kapp [2-19]- followed by an all-round display by skipper Dane van Niekerk [2-20 & 46]. And, they will now be looking to further solidify their spot in Group B and also improve their net run-rate when they take on Thailand on February 28.

Thailand, on the other hand, have lost back-to-back matches and are already out of reckoning from the semi-finals. They will once again hope to gain another valuable experience and display an improved performance against the Proteas.

Weather Condition/Report

It is expected to be a bright and sunny day in Canberra on Friday. According to the weather report, Manuka Oval is set to be bathed in sunshine throughout the day. While the temperature is set to hover between 9 and 25 degrees Celsius, the humidity will be around 38%. Chances of rain- 10℅.


Pitch Condition/Report:

The pitch at the Manuka Oval has provided a fair balance between bat and ball thus far in the tournament. While the likes of Heather Knight have racked up a  three-figure score against Thailand, the Pakistani bowlers showed against the West Indies that the track has enough assistance to keep them interested.

Average first innings score: 150 [In the two matches played at the venue this tournament]

Record of chasing teams: Won – 1, Lost – 1

Expert Advice

Dane van Niekerk [2-20 & 46] contributed with both bat and ball and can be a great pick as far as Fantasy XI is concerned.

Lizelle Lee [4] missed out on the last game. But she is too good a player to keep missing out. Since the last T20 World Cup, Lee is the leading run-scorer with 384 runs at an average of 29.53 for the Proteas.

Probable Winners:

South Africa Women are expected to come out as the winners.
