Pitch Report
As seen in the previous game, the pitch is on the slower side, allowing bowlers to use their variations to good effect. The batters will have to bide their time in the middle before going big. Wickets in hand will be key in the middle and death overs, with a change of pace likely to be used more often than not. Both teams will ideally look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 220 being a decent total at the venue.
Today's SL-W vs IN-W Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Yastika Bhatia: Yastika Bhatia is one of India's best batters, capable of scoring big runs in the top order. Yastika has good technique against both pace and spin, excelling in foreign conditions. With the southpaw due a big knock, she is a good addition to your SL-W vs IN-W Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Smriti Mandhana: Smriti Mandhana, like Yastika, didn't fire in the previous game, getting out cheaply in the powerplay phase itself. The southpaw is India's best white-ball batter, with her record speaking for itself.
All-rounder
Chamari Athapaththu: Chamari Athapaththu is Sri Lanka's best bet with the bat, with a heap of experience to fall back on. She has shown glimpses of her ability in the last few games as well. Although she hasn't bowled much, Athapaththu's batting prowess should alone earn a spot in your SL-W vs IN-W Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Rajeshwari Gayakwad: Rajeshwari Gayakwad has been one of India's best bowlers in this format, often picking up key wickets in the middle overs. Her accuracy and variations serve her well, holding her in good stead. With the conditions suiting her as well, she is a good addition to your SL-W vs IN-W Dream11 fantasy team.
