Pitch Report
Kotambi Stadium has hosted 4 women’s ODIs. The average first innings score is 257, and batting first and chasing have won two games each. Fast bowlers have taken 57% of the wickets in the last 10 games here, but spinner Shree Charani took 4/23 on Friday.
For fantasy, pick India’s top order and at least one spinner from each side. India chased 198 in just 27 overs, so chasing looks easy if Zimbabwe bat first. Around 240 looks like a good total.
Weather Report
It will be warm and cloudy in Vadodara, around 28°C, with no chance of rain. A full 50 over game is expected.
Probable Playing XIs
India Women: Pratika Rawal, Smriti Mandhana (c), Shafali Verma, Harmanpreet Kaur, Harleen Deol, Richa Ghosh (wk), Deepti Sharma, Shree Charani, Renuka Singh Thakur, Kranti Gaud, Nandani Sharma
Zimbabwe Women: Josephine Nkomo (c), Beloved Biza, Chipo Mugeri-Tiripano, Modester Mupachikwa (wk), Michelle Mavunga, Kelis Ndhlovu, Sharne Mayers, Nyasha Gwanzura, Nomvelo Sibanda, Olinder Chare, Tendai Makusha
Rawal, Mandhana, Shafali, Deepti, Charani and Gaud all played on Friday. For Zimbabwe, Biza, Mavunga, Mupachikwa, Mugeri-Tiripano, Gwanzura, Chare, Makusha and Sibanda played. We could not find the full scorecard, so the rest of both XIs is our best guess from the squads. Final XIs come at the toss.
