Pitch Report
Although a decent batting track beckons at the University Oval, the bowlers should also get some help off the surface. The pacers might get the new ball to swing around, keeping the batters on their toes. As the match progresses, the pitch should slow down and bring the spinners into play. Wickets in hand will be key for both sides, with batting first being the preferred option upon winning the toss.
Today’s BD-W vs SA-W Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Nigar Sultana: Nigar Sultana is Bangladesh's best bet in the middle overs, with the keeper-batter being comfortable against both pace and spin. Although Sultana has not been in the best of form, she is known for scoring big runs in the middle overs. Although Lizelle Lee is a decent option herself, Sultana should make for a better selection.
Batter
Laura Wolvaardt: Laura Wolvaardt is one of the best batters in the world with her record speaking for herself. The South African opener has been scoring runs for fun over the last year or so. And given her fine form, she should be one to watch out for in this game.
All-rounder
Marizanne Kapp: Marizanne Kapp provides some much-needed balance and depth to the side with her all-round ability. However, in the absence of Dane van Niekerk, a lot will be expected of Kapp, whose new-ball ability will be key to South Africa's fortunes. With the conditions suiting her, Kapp is a fine addition to your BD-W vs SA-W Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Shabnim Ismail: Shabnim Ismail is one of the fastest and best bowlers on the women's circuit. Her ability to get the ball moving at a decent pace makes her a threat in the powerplay overs. Like Kapp, she should enjoy the conditions, making her a good selection in your BD-W vs SA-W Dream11 fantasy team.
