Today’s EN-W vs PK-W Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Muneeba Ali: Muneeba Ali was brilliant in Pakistan's win over West Indies with a solid knock at the top of the order. Muneeba's return to form is a good sign for Pakistan, with the opener capable of playing both pace and spin well. Given her recent returns, she should get the nod over Amy Jones in your fantasy team.
Batter
Danielle Wyatt: Danielle Wyatt has been underwhelming with the bat despite batting at the top of the order. However, she has shown glimpses of her ability and will be keen to get a big one at the expense of Pakistan. With Wyatt having a lot of experience to fall back on, she is one to watch out for in this game.
All-rounder
Nida Dar: Nida Dar is one of the premier all-rounders in the game, with her numbers speaking for themselves. The Pakistan all-rounder has come up with valuable contributions throughout the tournament. With the conditions also playing into her hands, she is a must-have in your EN-W vs PK-W Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Sophie Ecclestone: Sophie Ecclestone has been England's best bowler in the tournament, churning out economical spells in the middle overs. The star spinner is known for her relentless accuracy and clever variations to lure batters into making mistakes. Given her track record and knack for picking wickets, Ecclestone is a good addition to your EN-W vs PK-W Dream11 fantasy team.
