Captaincy Picks for THU vs SUN
Kate Cross
She started her season with a bang, bowling superbly in the first match of the competition. Cross picked up three wickets for just 35 runs in that. She is handy with the bat as well and can score some runs if required.
Sophie Ecclestone
Sophie Ecclestone had a good performance with the bat in her previous match. In that match, she scored 37 runs first and went on to pick up three crucial scalps by giving 63 runs. She is a must-pick based on her calibre.
