Murshida Khatun

The 24-year-old opening batter from 23 ODI appearances has accumulated 422 runs, including the highest of 91*. Murshida hasn’t found any success this series, departing on scores of 10 and 5; however, she is a promising batter and will be backed to find her footing.

Alyssa Healy

The 34-year-old keeper-batter, averaging 34.62, has amassed 2978 runs, including the highest of 170, from 97 ODI innings. Though Alyssa has departed on scores of 24 and 15 this series, she has looked fluent for runs and can be counted on to capitalize on these starts.
