SV vs LIG Risky Captaincy Choices:
Charlotte Taylor was the leading wicket-taker in the last year, picking up 15 wickets in 5 matches. It’s worth a risk in picking her as your fantasy team skipper for her wicket-taking abilities.
Sarah Bryce had a good tournament last year with the bat, but she didn’t perform according to her standards in the recent T20I series against Ireland. Hence, she is a risky captaincy pick.
Player you should avoid:
Sarah Bryce and Abigail Freeborn are the frontline wicketkeeper. Hence, you can avoid Carla Rudd while making your fantasy teams.
