Fantasy Tips of the Day
Although the pitch has favoured the batters, the spinners have had a good time too. 13 of 23 wickets that fell in the last 2 games belonged to the spinners.
5 of the top 7 wicket-takers in the series are all-rounders.
Smart Picks
The wicketkeepers from both teams have been making the life of fantasy players easier. While Richa Ghosh appeared in the Ultimate Team in all four games in the series, Alyssa Healy has collected 60 points with the help of 93 runs, a catch, and a stumping.
Beth Mooney is the only player to collect fantasy points in three figures: 145. Besides adding 203 runs at a strike rate of 144, she has provided vital points for 3 catches and a stumping. Not to forget that she was the top run-scorer in the Australian T20 League: 434 runs at an average of 44.
At the venue, Ellyse Perry has scores 75 off 47 and 72* off 42. Against India, she averages 31 in 24 games. With the ball, however, she has not been utilised much but managed to pick 2 wickets in only 5 overs.
Smriti Mandhana has been in good touch in 2022, blasting 590 runs at an average of 35. On the other hand, Shafali Verma has got starts in all the games, providing bonus points for a thirty and a fifty.
4 of Deepti Sharma’s 5 wickets in the series have come at the Brabourne Stadium. With the bat, she has been even better, having a top score of 36*.
Ashleigh Gardner has been impressive with both bat and ball of late. In her last 10 competitive T20s, she has taken 14 wickets and smashed 236 runs at an average of 34.
