Pitch Report
As seen in previous games, a competitive track is expected at the University Oval in Dunedin. Although the pacers should get some help early on, the batters will enjoy the ball coming onto the bat nicely. The spinners should get some turn in the middle overs, paving the way for an even contest between the bat and ball. A change of pace will be key as the match progresses, with the pitch likely to slow down. Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with 240 being par at the venue.
Today’s WI-W vs EN-W Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Kycia Knight: Although Kycia Knight didn't have a great outing against New Zealand in the previous game, she is a vital cog in the West Indies batting unit. Capable of holding one end, Kycia can be backed to score some runs, ideally getting the nod over Amy Jones in your WI-W vs EN-W Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Heather Knight: Although Heather Knight did get a start against the Australians, she could not convert it into a match-winning knock. The England captain is one of the premier batters in the world and given her prowess with the ball as well, she is one to watch out for in this game.
All-rounder
Hayley Matthews: Hayley Matthews was the star of the show as West Indies stunned the White Ferns in the Women's World Cup opener. The star all-rounder scored a sensational ton and picked up a few wickets as well. Going by the current form and the nature of the pitch, Matthews becomes a must-have in your WI-W vs EN-W Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Sophie Ecclestone: Sophie Ecclestone underperformed in England's loss to arch-rivals Australians, conceding 77 runs in her quota of 10 overs. However, Ecclestone is one of the best in the business, capable of keeping the scoring down and picking up wickets in the middle overs. With the left-arm spinner due for a big performance, Ecclestone is a good addition to your WI-W vs EN-W Dream11 fantasy team.
