The right-hand opening bat scored a brilliant 40 off 45 balls, including four boundaries. She was there till the 17th over and played a pivotal role in helping her side post 85-4 in 20 overs.

Weather

The weather is expected to be cloudy through the course of the match. A thunderstorm is predicted towards the latter half of the match. The average temperatures will be between 20 and 21 degrees Celsius.

Pitch

Spinners could be the key going into this match. It will be the 11th match of the tournament at the venue and it is likely that the wicket will be a bit slow. Toss will not be that important, given that, out of the 10 matches played so far, teams batting first and teams batting second have won an equal number of matches. The average first innings score has been 75 and the average second innings score has been 54.
