Singapore Women and Myanmar Women are set to open their bilateral T20I series with the first match at the Singapore National Cricket Ground on November 27. Both sides will view this as a crucial opportunity to build momentum, especially with the women’s T20 calendar becoming more competitive across Asia. Singapore, ranked slightly higher, will aim to assert home advantage and put on a composed performance in front of their supporters.
For Myanmar Women, this series carries special significance as they look to expand their experience against stronger opponents. Myanmar’s recent outings have shown glimpses of promise, particularly through their disciplined bowling and young all-rounders who are steadily adapting to international intensity. Their biggest test will come against Singapore’s top and middle order, known for building partnerships patiently before accelerating in the back end.

Players to watch out:
Shafina Mahesh
Shafina Mahesh stands as the leading run-scorer for Singapore Women, having accumulated an impressive 777 runs over her T20I career, including three half-centuries. Her reliability at the top of the order is matched by her utility with the ball, where she has also claimed 33 wickets. As a true veteran, her leadership and ability to contribute across both departments will be absolutely vital for the team’s aspirations in this series.
GK Diviya
A powerhouse all-rounder, GK Diviya’s statistics are simply phenomenal, defining her role as the team’s most valuable player. She is the second-highest run-scorer with 720 runs and, crucially, tops the wicket charts with 45 wickets at an incredible economy rate of 3.83. Her dual threat of attacking with the bat and strangling the opposition with her off spin makes her the undisputed lynchpin of the Singapore lineup.
Zon Lin
Zon Lin is undeniably Myanmar’s foremost all-round star, leading the side’s run-scoring charts with 580 runs and contributing 30 wickets with the ball. Her best bowling figures of a stunning 6/10 highlight her match-winning potential and her ability to rip through a batting lineup single-handedly. As the highest run-getter and a major wicket-taking threat, she is the player Singapore must strategize to contain.
Thient Soe
The primary wicket-taker for the team, Thient Soe spearheads the bowling attack with 38 wickets at a fantastic average of 14.65. Her discipline and ability to maintain a tight line are reflected in her strong economy. Having also contributed a handy 320 runs with the bat, her presence ensures that Myanmar has a reliable player who can turn the game with either skill set.
Pitch:
The pitch at the Singapore National Cricket Ground is known to be true and offers early assistance to fast bowlers, with swing and seam movement likely in the initial overs. As the match progresses, the surface tends to settle and becomes better for batting, allowing stroke-makers to play more freely.
Weather:
Expect warm, humid conditions with lots of cloud cover and a good chance of thunderstorms, especially later in the day. Temperatures should sit around the low 30s (°C), but it will feel hotter because of the humidity.
Fantasy Playing XI:
Laasya Bommareddy, GK Diviya, Riyaa Bhasin, Shafina Mahesh, Vinu Kumar, Ada Bhasin, Khin Myat, Lin Lin Tun, Thae Thae Aung, Theint Soe, Zon Lin
