Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

Australia Women suffered defeat in their first game against India by a margin of 17 runs. The main reason behind their loss was the poor batting display as none of their batters managed to click good knocks with the bat. In the high-profile tournament, they will now surely look to get back into the groves with a win against Sri Lanka Women.

They have a heavy-duty batting line up that comprises of  Alyssa Healy, Beth Mooney and Meg Lanning, who will be having the responsibility to score some good runs with the bat. Meanwhile, their bowling unit looks balanced as they gave a decent performance in their opening game of the World Cup.

Sri Lanka Women also suffered a defeat in their curtain-raiser against white ferns by a big margin of seven wickets. It was their middle order that failed to score big runs with the bat due to which Sri Lankan Women lost the game. Chamari Athapaththu turned out to be their top-scorer after she hit 41 runs.

However, her brilliant effort went in vain as her side ended up losing the match. On the other hand, their bowlers also looked pale, who were finding it difficult to grab wickets in their previous game. The next match for them is going to be quite tough as far as the form of Aussie women is concerned.

Weather Condition/Report

The weather forecast says that the chances of rain on the matchday are very high with a probability of around 86%. It might abandon the game with the wind blowing at a rate of 13 to 28 km/hr. Meanwhile, the temperature will hover between 22 and 30 Degree Celsius throughout the day according to Accuweather.


Pitch Condition/Report:

The pitch at W.A.C.A. Ground will heavily go in favour of the bowlers, who can expect some swing due to the overcast conditions. The batsmen will have a tough time facing fast bowling spearheads. The batters will have to get settled down before going for big sixes and boundaries. Otherwise, they will have to pay its price by losing their wicket. The side winning the toss will look to bowl first in order to take advantage of the bowling friendly conditions.
