Players to watch out:

Swaum Godfrey

The 21-year-old batter has looked in excellent form this tournament, and her team will be hopeful of her continuing this form. Swaum is the 2nd highest run-scorer this edition, having notched up 113 runs, including the highest of 80 from 3 outings. Notably, Swaum has accumulated her runs at a strike rate of 121.51.

Shania Fikiri

The 16-year-old, in 3 outings, has taken 3 wickets and maintained an economy rate of 6.60. Shania has consistently managed good bowling figures. It’ll be expected of her to now build on this momentum and produce a few match-winning spells with multiple wickets in an innings against her name.

Catherine Dominic

The 24-year-old keeper-batter, in a couple of outings this season, has managed to score 31 runs in 2 games. Catherine’s 22 in her recent outing should do her confidence a world of good, and she will be expected to capitalize on this start.

Sheila Shamte

The 18-year-old off-spinner, in 6 Twenty20 Internationals, has bagged 4 wickets, maintaining an economy rate of 4.85. Shamte has been brilliant for the team, putting up all-round performances with 49 runs and 4 wickets to her name in three outings. In an underperforming team, she must look to carry forward her form to the business end.

Pitch:

The center wicket at Leader’s Club Ground pleases the bowlers, particularly the pacers, and presents difficulties for the batters. The pace-friendly tracks result in an average score in the 100s, requiring batters to exhibit discipline to post a competitive total.

Weather:

It’ll be a bright sunny day at the Leader’s Club Ground and the temperature is expected to hover at around 31°C with moderate winds and humidity of 63%. The absence of rain promises us a complete game of cricket.
