Players to watch out:

Ines McKeon

The 17-year-old keeper-batter, from 16 T20 Internationals (T20Is) for France, has accumulated 354 runs at a strike rate of 113.46, while also taking a couple of wickets. Following a string of low scores in U19 games, she bounced back by scoring 49 in her recent outing and will hopefully build on this return to form.

Amy Hunter

The 18-year-old pacer featured in 5 One Dayers last domestic season but didn’t find much success, taking only a couple of wickets. However, in this tri-series, Amy has produced bowling figures of 2/4 (2.2) and 1/9 (2.0), and the team will count on her to build on this bowling form, leading the wickets tally.

Tash Wakelin

The 18-year-old all-rounder didn’t score many runs last domestic season but was consistently among the starts and registered the highest score of 59, while taking 7 wickets from 9 outings. While Tash hasn’t scored many runs in this series, she has taken two wickets and can be counted on to find her footing.

Eve Wolland

The 18-year-old all-rounder didn’t bowl in the 2023-24 domestic summer and only managed a few starts with the bat across competitions. However, in this series, Eve followed up her score of 3 with a 24 in her recent outing and also took a couple of wickets. She’ll be relied upon for all-round efforts.

Pitch:

Bill Pippen Oval dishes out an evenly balanced center strip that slightly favors the batters. While it is conducive for batting, the average score in the 130s suggests the assistance that bowlers can expect off the wicket.

Weather:

It is expected to be a pleasant day for cricket with no rain interruptions, as the radar indicates clear, sunny skies. The temperature is forecasted to hover around 24°C, with moderate winds and 64% humidity.
