Players to watch out:

Simran Shaikh

The 21-year-old all-rounder is a promising talent who has had a notable season so far. Simran has been aggressive upfront and has managed a few good starts. The team will want her to continue playing her natural game but also to adapt with maturity to the situation, especially in big games when she’s got a start.

Humaaira Kaazi

The 30-year-old all-rounder has been exceptional for the side this season, scoring 208 runs from 7 innings, including her best of 54. In her previous 4 outings, Humaaira has registered scores of 52(54), 5(4), 33(15), and 27(22), and the team will be hopeful for her to continue this momentum in the ongoing business end of the tournament.

Poonam Khemnar

The 29-year-old batter is in the form of her life, and a couple of games following a blistering 70-ball 142*, Poonam scored a 42-ball 60. In the same game, she also produced bowling figures of 2/4. Poonam has amassed 289 runs in 6 outings this season, with an average of 57.60 and a strike rate of 147.44. It’ll be expected of the seasoned campaigner to step up for the side in the must-win match.

Priti Yadav

The 27-year-old spinner has been extremely effective for the side thus far and will be trusted to make the most of her momentum. Priti, in 6 outings, has bagged 11 wickets, maintaining an economy rate of 4.04. Her figures in her previous 4 outings read 2/5, 4/18, 2/16, and 2/21. Poonam Soni and the rest of the bowling attack have responded well as a unit, and that’s certainly boosted Priti’s efforts.

Pitch:

The center wicket at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium, favors the batters, offering them a friendly surface to bat on. However, the track also benefits the bowlers, particularly the pacers, with assistance to exploit, as evidenced by the average score in the 130s.

Weather:

Raipur promises ideal conditions for a game of cricket with a partly cloudy overhead and a very slim chance of rain. The temperature is expected to hover around 26°C with light winds and a humidity level of 58%.
