Players to watch out:

Georgia Redmayne

The 30-year-old keeper-batter has amassed 423 runs, including the highest of 112, from 9 WNCL innings this season. Georgia has been in notable form, and her scores from her previous four outings read 43, 55, 5, and 45. It’ll be expected of the seasoned campaigner to convert her scores into a big knock.

Nicola Hancock

The 28-year-old pacer has scalped 8 wickets, with the best being 2/17, from 10 outings, and can also be handy with the bat. Nicola has returned figures of 1/40, 1/34, 1/36, and 1/41 from her previous 4 outings while registering successive scores of 17 and 22 in recent games. She’ll be banked upon for the goods.

Amy Jones

The 30-year-old English keeper-batter, averaging 26.14, has accumulated 1647 runs, including the highest of 69, from 69 One-Day International (ODI) innings. In her only WNCL outing this edition, Amy scored a solid 36-ball 42, and she’ll be counted on to step up with the bat, leading the scoring yet again.

Chloe Ainsworth

The 18-year-old pacer has bagged 9 wickets from as many WNCL outings this summer, maintaining an economy rate of 4.59, and registering the best of 3/27. Chloe, in her previous couple of outings, has produced figures of 1/39 and 1/45, and it’ll be hoped she carries on with this momentum, delivering impactful spells.

Pitch:

The center strip at the Allan Border Field provides a somewhat neutral playing field as the conditions are advantageous to both batters and bowlers. Pacers in particular benefit from the conditions, and a score in the 230s is believed to be a competitive one on this wicket.

Weather:

Light winds, humidity at 66%, and a temperature of around 29°C are forecasted for the fixture. With clear overhead conditions, the chances of rain are minimal, promising a complete game of cricket.

Fantasy playing XI:
