SC-W vs IR-W Dream11 match top picks for 1st T20I
Top Wicketkeeper Pick
Sarah Bryce (32 matches, 706 runs, Average: 29.41)
Sarah Bryce is one of Scotland's best batters, averaging nearly 30 in T20Is. She comes into the series on the back of a good Hundred campaign, scoring 120 runs in four innings. With Bryce batting at the top of the order, she is a top pick for your SC-W vs IR-W Dream11 fantasy team.

Kathryn Bryce (26 matches, 647 runs, 25 wickets)
Kathryn Bryce is another in-form player who had a good Hundred campaign. She is Scotland's go-to player with 647 runs and 25 wickets to her name. Given the balance she adds to the side, Kathryn Bryce is a good pick for your SC-W vs IR-W Dream11 fantasy team.
Top Bowler Pick
Abtaha Maqsood (26 matches, 30 wickets, Average: 14.23)
Abtaha Maqsood picked up only one wicket in five matches in The Hundred. However, the leggie was economical in most games. She is a skillful bowler who is averaging 14.23 in 26 T20Is. With the conditions also suiting her, Maqsood is one to watch out for in this game.

Laura Delany
Laura Delany is an experienced campaigner who scored 22 runs and picked up three wickets in the tri-series against Pakistan and Australia.
