Players to watch out:

Kanchan Parihar

The 22-year-old top-order batter had a notable 2023/24 domestic season, and from 8 outings in the Senior Women’s T20 Trophy, added 117 runs to the tally, including the highest score of 42*. In this competition, while Kanchan departed cheaply for 9(19) in her only outing, she can be relied upon to convert this start into a substantial score.

Ekta Bisht

The 38-year-old bowling all-rounder excelled across formats last domestic season and, in the Senior Women’s T20 Trophy, chipped in scoring 71 runs from 7 innings at a strike rate of 140.57, while bagging 15 wickets from 10 outings at an economy rate of 4.66. Bagging figures of 2/19 (4), Ekta had a perfect start to this campaign and can be counted on for the goods.

Nandini Kashyap

The 20-year-old keeper-batter has played a lot of domestic cricket, and though she didn’t have a successful stint last season, she kicked off this season by registering two important knocks in this campaign. She followed up her 45(41) from the season opener with a 28-ball 50* in her recent outing, and it is hoped she continues this form, producing another big knock.

Mansi Joshi

The 31-year-old bowling all-rounder has struggled for consistency over the past few seasons yet managed to deliver; the same was the story last domestic season. In this competition so far, she has managed scores of 14 (31) and 5* (10) and scalped a couple of wickets in her recent outing, after a wicketless start. She can be relied upon for an all-round effort.

Pitch:

The center wicket at Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium poses challenges for batters due to its spin-friendly nature, leading to an average score in the 110s. Batters will need to apply themselves thoroughly to succeed on this low-scoring wicket.

Weather:

The conditions in Dehradun are expected to be pleasant for the game, despite mostly cloudy skies. The temperature is forecasted to hover around 27°C, with light winds and 78% humidity.
