ENG-W vs PAK-W: Probable Best Batter
England Women: Captain Nat Sciver-Brunt slammed a century in the last game. She displayed good attacking instinct and a calculated approach and will look to play another captain's knock here.
Pakistan Women: Sidra Ameen is the only Pakistani batter that has scored a fifty in this tournament. She has looked good but needs some support from other batters as well.
ENG-W vs PAK-W: Probable Best Bowler
England Women: No. 1 ranked ODI bowler Sophie Ecclestone has nine wickets in just three games. She is using the pitch and crease very well and outfoxing the batters.
Pakistan Women: Diana Baig, with her experience, will have a big role in this game. She takes wickets with new and old balls, which makes her an important member of this attack.
ENG-W vs PAK-W Today’s Match Prediction: There is no match between these two sides. Pakistan have decent bowling, but they lack the wicket-taking options. Then, with the bat, they are the poorest side in this tournament. In fact, they are the only team that has yet to score 200 runs in an inning among all participating sides.
On the other hand, England Women have shown complete dominance so far. They have won games batting or bowling first. Heather Knight and Sciver Brunt are in excellent batting form, and their bowlers are performing better in these conditions. All these are the reasons that England Women are likely to win this game on Wednesday.
