Fantasy Tips of The Day
Heather Knight has been a delightful pick in fantasy leagues. She has generated a 30-run bonus thrice and picked four wickets in as many matches.
Marizanne Kapp’s recent form has been splendid. In her last 10 games, she has taken 15 wickets and scored 115 runs at 19.
Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma have scored 60% of Delhi’s runs at an average of 62.5.
Ellyse Perry has registered two thirties and a fifty in the last four matches. However, she has gone wicketless in all four matches.
Sahana Pawar’s inclusion in the team was for a reason. She had taken the most wickets (5) for India A Women in Women’s T20 Trophy.
Richa Ghosh has featured in the Best11 in three of four matches in the tournament.
Four of Shikha Pandey’s five wickets in the tournament have come at this venue.
When the sides clashed earlier, Tara Norris (five wickets) was the captain of the Best11.
Bangalore have conceded over 200 runs in both matches they have bowled first, while Delhi have scored 200-plus runs in two of three games they have batted first.
Pacers have scalped two three-fors and a five-for while spinners have registered three three-fors in the last three matches at the venue, while only three fifties have been scored.
