Players to watch out:
Balabommala Jaishri

S Maithreyee
The 25-year-old all-rounder has had a good tournament, contributing 57 runs, with an outstanding innings of 52 runs being the highlight. Additionally, she has also taken a wicket. It’s been a tournament of starts for Maithreyee, but should look to convert her starts.
Eloksi Arun

The 18-year-old pacer has performed well in the tournament thus far. In the One-Day matches, Shreya has taken 3 wickets in 2 appearances. Ramyashri KN Prasad leads the team’s wickets tally, with Shreya closely following behind.
Pitch:
The venue dishes a wicket that’s suited for both batting and bowling, evidenced by the average score of 170. During the middle overs, bowlers, particularly spinners, prove to be impactful and pose a significant challenge to the batters.
