RR vs CSK Match Prediction & Analysis We are over with the first round of games in the Indian Premier League 2025. The Rajasthan Royals will be under immense pressure as they face the Chennai Super Kings in the 11th game of the season. In their last game, the Royals suffered a crushing defeat against the Kolkata Knight Riders. The Chennai Super Kings also went down against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the last game and shall look for a strong comeback.   The Rajasthan Royals’ bowling attack has been all over the place in two games. They haven’t troubled the batters, lowering their confidence in the camp. The side must get its acts together in this game. The Chennai Super Kings have a strong bowling attack and depth in the batting. The Royals must win here to regain their confidence, and it will be interesting to see if they are up for the task.  TEAMS PREVIEW Rajasthan Royals Preview Riyan Parag and his team will face the heat headlining into their 3rd game.  The team has suffered big losses in its two games and went down by 8 wickets against the Kolkata Knight Riders. The bowling attack looks rusty, and this will be a massive challenge for the team against the Super Kings’ batting depth. Parag must inspire confidence in his players and win here to earn their first points.    Sanju Samson and Yashasvi Jaiswal didn’t look at their best in the last two games, and the onus will be on them to deliver a good start. The middle order packs a punch, and the team needs a good show from Riyan Parag, Shimron Hetmyer, and Nitish Rana. Wanindu Hasaranga, Dhruv Jurel, and Shubham Dubey can hit the ball cleanly, and they will look to add quick runs.   The bowling attack will be under pressure after ordinary performances in back-to-back games. Fazalhaq Farooqi, who replaces Jofra Archer, must bowl a good spell with Maheesh Theekshana. Hasaranga must bring his experience to play and do well in the middle overs with Parag and Sandeep Sharma. The side will also expect a good show in the supporting role from Nitish Rana and Tushar Deshpande. Chennai Super Kings Preview Ruturaj Gaikwad’s side suffered an uncharacteristic loss in their last game against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The team went down by 50 runs after their strong batting lineup failed to deliver the goods. Gaikwad would like to put this loss behind and come up with a strong show in this game. Their opponents are struggling, and CSK will look to exploit this weakness.   Rachin Ravindra and Rahul Tripathi will look to take on Rajasthan’s new-ball attack, which has struggled so far. The middle order failed in the last game, and the team expects partnerships between Ruturaj Gaikwad, Deepak Hooda, and Sam Curran. They have depth in the batting and shall expect quick runs from Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni, and Ravichandran Ashwin in the lower middle order.   The bowling attack didn’t use the conditions well in the last game, and the team needs early strikes from Khaleel Ahmed and Ravichandran Ashwin. Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran must keep things in check in the middle overs. Matheesha Pathirana, Shivam Dube, and Noor Ahmed add depth to the attack. Weather Conditions We expect clear skies over Guwahati. The batting surface will be flat, where batsmen can play their strokes. There is a hint of slowness on this track, which offers an advantage to the spinners. The average first-inning score has been around 173 runs, and the team batting first would be happy to have 190 runs on the board. RR vs CSK Pitch Report Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati, is large and not the easiest venue for scoring big. Fast bowlers get assistance from the surface early in the game. Batsmen who build their innings have done well. Spinners, who turn the ball sharply, have done well at this venue. Toss: To Bowl The conditions are challenging for the batsmen in the first 10 overs but ease in the second half. The side chasing the score has won the last two games easily. Dew also plays a role in the evening when bowling gets tougher. The side winning the toss would look to bowl first on this track.

Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :​​​ Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : March 29, Saturdayπ“πˆπŒπ„ : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, India π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ : Indian Premier League, 2025 Gujarat Titans have dominated Mumbai Indians at the Narendra Modi Stadium, winning all three matches played between them at this venue. Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. GT vs MI Match Prediction & Analysis Gujarat Titans (GT) and Mumbai Indians (MI) will clash in the ninth match of IPL 2025 in Ahmedabad. Both sides are coming off losses in their first games and will be eager to grab their first points. The previous match at this venue saw over 450 runs being scored in 40 overs, and a similar high-scoring contest is expected. The team that attacks with the bat more aggressively is likely to gain the upper hand on this batting-friendly surface. TEAMS PREVIEW Gujarat Titans Preview Gujarat Titans started their campaign with a tough 11-run loss to Punjab Kings. The Narendra Modi Stadium played host to a run-fest, with Punjab smashing 243-5 after being sent in to bat. Gujarat fought hard in reply but couldn’t get over the line. Sai Sudharsan (74 off 41) and Jos Buttler (54 off 33) were the bright spots with the bat. Shubman Gill also got off to a fast start but couldn’t convert it into a big score. However, his record at this venue is outstandingβ€”he has nearly 1,000 runs in 19 matches at the venue, including three centuries. Gill will be expected to step up in this game. GT’s lower middle order looks unreliable, with Shahrukh Khan, Sai Kishore, and Arshad Khan filling those slots. If Gujarat loses wickets early, they could be in serious trouble. Bowling is another area of concern. Mohammed Siraj struggled in the previous fixture, conceding 54 runs in his four-over spell. Kagiso Rabada is their most reliable pacer, but he can’t do it alone. Rashid Khan also had an off day, going for 48 runs in his four overs. The only standout was Sai Kishore, who picked up three wickets for 30. Gujarat’s bowling needs to step up, or they’ll have a tough time in the tournament. Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians didn’t have the best start to their IPL 2025 campaign, falling short in their opener against Chennai Super Kings. The low-scoring match at Chepauk saw Mumbai struggle on a sluggish pitch, with Tilak Varma’s 31 being the highest contribution. The final total of 155-9 wasn’t enough, as CSK chased it down without much trouble. Ahmedabad’s conditions, however, should be far more favorable for Mumbai’s batting lineup. With players like Rohit Sharma, Ryan Rickelton, Will Jacks, and Suryakumar Yadav, they’ll be eager to make an impact on a pitch suited for stroke play. Adding to their strength is the return of captain Hardik Pandya, who had to sit out the first game due to an over-rate penalty from the previous season. Having played for Gujarat in 2022 and 2023, Pandya knows this surface inside out and can contribute with both bat and ball. Mumbai’s bowling attack will look to make early inroads with Trent Boult and Deepak Chahar leading the charge. Left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner is expected to control the run flow in the middle overs while also providing wicket-taking opportunities. Meanwhile, young left-arm wrist-spinner Vignesh Puthur, who impressed with 3-32 on debut, could again play a crucial role. Weather Conditions The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium will be a flat deck. In the previous game here, we saw batters making merry and hitting through the line with ease. There is hardly any assistance for fast bowlers and both teams will be looking to make as many runs as possible off them. Spinners will find some grip in the middle, but it won’t be much of an issue. The pitch will stay true throughout. The weather in Ahmedabad will be warm and clear with no forecast of rain. GT vs MI Pitch Report In the previous game played at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Punjab Kings amassed 243-5 after batting first and Gujarat Titans scored 232-5 in response – that’s a total of 475 runs in 40 overs! Expect another run-fest at the venue with more than 420 runs on the cards.  Toss: To Bat In the previous game played at the Narendra Modi Stadium, the team batting first registered a comfortable win. Batting first, hence, seems to be to safer option here.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, PAK vs NZ 2025, Today Match Prediction

New Zealand vs Pakistan, PAK vs NZ 2025, Today Match Prediction

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :​ ​New Zealand vs Pakistan ​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : March 18, Tuesdayπ“πˆπŒπ„ :06:45 AM IST​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : University Oval, Dunedin, New Zealand π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ : 2nd T20I 2025 New Zealand look to go 2-0 up in the series in Dunedin on Tuesday. New Zealand vs Pakistan TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NZ vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis It was a crushing win for New Zealand over Pakistan on Sunday in the first of five T20Is with the Black Caps getting over the line with nine wickets in the bank and with 59 balls remaining! Many pundits and commentators expected New Zealand to be the stronger side but few had predicted a victory by such a large margin and pressure is very much on Pakistan ahead of this second match. Lose this game and the series looks as good as over, but if they win it then suddenly the series is all square again! Pakistan do not have their strongest batting line-up so their bowlers must perform to a high level or else this match and this series could be one to forget for the tourists. TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview Make no mistake about it, this team is not the strongest T20I side which New Zealand would put out if this was a T20 World Cup. But the truth is that the Black Caps have strength in depth across all positions and they are one of the best all-format teams in world cricket! Ahead of this second game of the series, Tim Seifert will fancy his chances of making another decent score after he made 44 runs from 29 balls on Sunday. Alongside him at the top of the order, we expect Finn Allen  – who hit 137 runs from 62 balls in the last T20I here – to continue to play in his aggressive style, with Tim Robinson and Daryl Mitchell waiting in the wings of a very strong top four. With the ball, there may be no Tim Southee, Trent Boult or Matt Henry, but in Kyle Jamieson and Jacob Duffy, New Zealand have two pace bowlers who are just as strong as the other three on their day. Jamieson will be looking to maintain his economy rate of 2.00 from Christchurch when this game gets underway. Pakistan Preview Not for the first time in a recent international fixture against New Zealand, Pakistan found themselves chasing the game from early on and were never able to recover on Sunday. Therefore, they must be on their game from the first ball when this match gets underway on Tuesday in Dunedin. With ducks for both openers, and four more runs across Irfan Khan and Shadab Khan combined in the top five, it’s clear where the batting needs to improve. Captain Salman Agha is a very reliable player across all formats but he will need the likes of Mohammad Haris and Shadab Khan to back him up in this clash. With the ball, Abrar Ahmed was the only player in green to pick up a wicket in the opening game of the series but the likes of Shaheen Shah Afridi should be able to exploit the conditions in the second T20I. Weather Conditions The forecast looks pretty awful for Dunedin at the moment. Not only is persistent rain on the radar, but the temperature is no higher than 12 degrees all day so any potential drying up will take a long while. NZ vs PAK Pitch Report This is a good batting wicket, as seen by New Zealand smashing 224/7 when they last played Pakistan at this venue! Whoever bats first will need to post 185+ to be competitive. Toss: To Bat There have been three previous T20Is at the University Oval in Dunedin with two of them won by the team batting first. Therefore, we predict that both sides will choose to bat first should they win the toss.

Netherlands vs Namibia TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NED vs NAM Match Prediction & Analysis ICC Cricket World Cup League is one of the competition between associate nations where top 4 teams qualify for the next stage. Every win is goldust in this format as these teams play for a place in Cricket World Cup 2027. Netherlands are in the third position currently and every win gives them a boost ahead in the points table. They will be eager to qualify to finish inside the top-2. Namibia has been reeling at the bottom half of the points table and are struggling for momentum recently. Both teams will look to boost their campaign with a win and will look for crucial points from every match they play.  TEAMS PREVIEW Netherlands Preview Netherlands scored 159 runs in their last completed game and won by 53 runs. Teja Nidamanuru (47 runs) played a fighting knock for crucial runs at the lower middle order. Vikramjit Singh and  Max O Dowd gave a superb start with 86-run partnership at the top. Colin Ackerman and Scott Edwards failed to get going in the game.  Their bowlers restricted the opposition to 106/10 in their last game. Aryan Dutt and Zach Lion Cachlet were the superb with the ball taking 3 wickets each in the match. Kyle Klein, Tim Van der gugten and Colin Ackerman chipped with vital wickets in the game.  Namibia Preview Namibia were bowled out for a low score of 174 runs in their 39 overs as the match ended as a tie (But they lost in the super over contest). Gerhard Erasmus top scored with 43 runs while Malan Kruger and Dylan Leicher chipped in with a vital cameos in the match. Their batters kept losing wickets for low scores as they were bowled out for tied score last game.  Their bowlers gave the opposition to 167/8 in 39 overs and they needed to chase the DLS revised target with 39 overs. Bernard Scholtz and Shaun Fouche bowled superbly and took 3 wickets each in the match. Gerhard Erasmus chipped with crucial wicket in the match.  Weather Conditions Windhoek will be slightly slow track with some assistance for the spinners, but ball will have variable bounce as match progresses. We expect dark and gloomy weather as per the weather forecasters. NED vs NAM Pitch Report We expect a good balance between the bat and ball in this match and the average scores to be in the range of 240-250 runs. Both teams have a line-up of spinners and if the pitch aids spinners, then we might see a low scoring match. Toss: To Bowl We expect both skippers to bowl first on this pitch as we can expect rain interruptions in this match.

England Masters vs Australia Masters TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. ENGM vs AUSM Match Prediction & Analysis Whenever England and Australia lock horns in an international sports contest, there will be eyes on it from across the globe and the players on both sides will be desperate to triumph. With the history of the Ashes, this fixture between the two ‘Masters’ representatives will have plenty of bite with certain players still with scores to settle from series over the past two decades. Despite any bitterness between the teams, the game is unlikely to have anything riding on it as Australia Masters will still be in the top four when it begins and barring a huge net-run-rate swing will be through to the knockouts. TEAMS PREVIEW England Masters Preview Throughout this tournament, scoring runs has been England Masters main issue and once again their batting line-up looked way too short of batters in their defeat against Sri Lanka Masters. Opener Phil Mustard made an entertaining half-century before being dismissed from 39 deliveries but England Masters are likely to have Chris Schofield batting at number five again in this game which is a couple of places too high for this standard. That will put more pressure on Mustard, captain Eoin Morgan and Tim Ambrose to deliver with the bat. Australia Masters Preview They may have taken a while to get going in the tournament, but now Australia Masters look unstoppable and will go into the knockouts as one of the favourites to lift the trophy. Momentum is a funny thing in competitions like this and Shane Watson’s side certainly have it after they thrashed South Africa Masters by 137 runs last Friday. That will give them the required net-run-rate cushion to see them through the group stage but with Watson, Callum Ferguson and Ben Dunk all in brilliant batting form, do not be surprised if they take the England Masters’ bowlers apart. With the ball, Xavier Doherty, Ben Laughlin and Bryce McGain all come into this game after taking 2+ wickets in the win over South Africa Masters. Weather Conditions It will be a clear evening in Raipur and the heat of earlier in the day will still be present. No clouds with humidity levels up at around 45% are forecast on Wednesday evening. ENGM vs AUSM Pitch Report The ball will bounce nicely for the stroke makers and unless the bowlers have real mystery or express pace they are likely to be hit all over. A par total will be over 200. Toss: To Bat This is an excellent batting surface and both teams will want to go big in the first innings and bat the others out of the contest. Therefore, we predict that both teams will choose to bat first.

Mumbai Indians Women vs Gujarat Giants Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. MIW vs GGW Match Prediction & Analysis With the top three places already secured in this year’s Women’s Premier League, both Mumbai Indians Women and Gujarat Giants Women know their place in the play-offs are assured ahead of this match. However, do not expect either team to take their foot off the pedal as there is still the opportunity to finish top of the table and advance directly to the final. Equally, this could yet be a fixture which is repeated in the not too distant future in the play-offs themselves! When the teams met earlier in the tournament last month it was Mumbai Indians Women who triumphed thanks to a fine all-round showing from Hayley Matthews. She remains in great form and could well be the difference between the sides once again. TEAMS PREVIEW Mumbai Indians Preview With a top four of Hayley Matthews, Amelia Kerr, Nat Sciver-Brunt and captain Harmanpreet Kaur, Mumbai Indians Women have been tipped to succeed in this tournament by many pundits from before a ball was bowled. Between Matthews (68 runs from 46 balls) and Sciver-Brunt (37 runs from 23 balls) the pair hit over 100 of the 151 runs required by Mumbai Indians Women on their way to a six wicket victory with nine balls remaining against UP Warriorz on Thursday. The top four will be crucial with the bat again in this game although Kerr, Matthews and Sciver-Brunt all play significant roles with the ball as well! Gujarat Giants Preview Gujarat Giants Women have plenty of talent in their side which is why they have been able to win each of their last three games. In their most recent success, they secured a five wicket victory with only three balls remaining against Delhi Capitals Women on Friday which was a statement in itself against the side at the top of the table. Beth Mooney (44 runs from 35 balls) and Harleen Deol (70 not out from 49 balls) were key in the chase of 178 to win and with captain Ashleigh Gardner and Deandra Dottin, not to mention Phoebe Litchfield to come in the order after, there is plenty of depth in the batting line-up. Weather Conditions Humidity levels will rise from 45% to 65% across this game but it will be very warm throughout with the temperature at 32 degrees at the start and potentially still at 29 by the end. MIW vs GGW Pitch Report This pitch is one which will turn for the spinners but is by no mean a slow and low-bouncing track. Batters will be able to go for their shots with confidence and a par score will be 160+. Toss: To Bowl Generally speaking, bowling first has yielded the most victories for teams in this year’s tournament and we expect to see both teams opting to bowl first again in this game.

Afghanistan vs England TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. AFG vs ENG Match Prediction & Analysis One of the great features of the ICC Champions Trophy is that teams do not have to wait long for their next fixture but lose a couple in a row and you are more than likely to be heading home! That will be in the minds of both the Afghanistan and England players ahead of this match after they were beaten by South Africa and Australia on Friday and Saturday respectively. Although both suffered losses, Afghanistan were the least competitive, seemingly heading for defeat from the end of the first over, whereas England did at least post 350 in the first innings but still saw Australia knock the runs off with 15 balls to spare. TEAMS PREVIEW Afghanistan Preview There are plenty of areas for improvement for Afghanistan ahead of this game with only batter Rahmat Shah and bowling all-rounder Mohammad Nabi able to hold their heads up high after the performance against South Africa. The losing margin was 107 runs but it would certainly have been a lot wider if Nabi had not taken 2/51, while being the most economical of the bowling attack, and Rahmat had not struck 90 of Afghanistan’s 208 all out. Fortunately for Jonathan Trott’s side, there are plenty of accomplished players in this team and he will be looking at the opening pair of Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran at the top of the order with Rashid Khan’s spin a big threat along that of Nabi’s. England Preview There will be one forced change for England ahead of this game as Brydon Carse will miss the rest of the tournament and has been replaced in the squad by spinner Rehan Ahmed. Unfortunately for the latter though, he is not expected to arrive in Lahore until after this game has begun so it is thought that Jamie Overton will come in as a like for like replacement. Although England fell to another ODI defeat, and another in Asia at that, there were two major positives with the bat as Ben Duckett struck his career best 165 from 143 balls and Joe Root played the anchor role with 68 runs from 78 balls. England need a score from captain Jos Buttler and he will be looking to end a torrid run of returns against Afghanistan, With the ball, all of the six man bowling attack, bar Joe Root, took a wicket against Australia and Buttler looks likely to be very reliant on the accuracy of Adil Rashid once again. Weather Conditions No rain is forecast during the match on Wednesday but it will be a predominantly cloudy day-night fixture. Humidity will also come into consideration with dew likely to be a factor during the final 20 overs. AFG vs ENG Pitch Report Both England and Australia showed that this is a good batting wicket on Saturday and we expect whoever bats first to be looking to post a score of at least 330 on this pitch. Toss: To Bowl Teams chasing have had the most success across recent ODIs in Lahore so we predict that both captains will choose to bowl first should they win the toss ahead of the game.

The MI Cape Town have enjoyed a great season, finishing at the top of the points table. They defeated the Pretoria Capitals in their last game. The Paar Royals will look to find their form back after going down against the Sunrisers Eastern Cape in the last game.  The MI Cape Town are entering this game with momentum. They have won the last five games and have key players in good form. The team has lost only twice in ten games and shall look to deliver a strong performance. The Paarl Royals have lost the last two games, and the team will be under pressure. It is a high-stakes battle for both teams, and it will be interesting to see which team wins. TEAMS PREVIEW MI Cape Town Preview Rashid Khan and his men will be confident in this game. It has been an excellent season for the team, and they have finished at the top of the points table. They defeated the Pretoria Capitals in the last game by 95 runs in a one-sided contest. The side has momentum with good performances in the last two weeks. Khan expects a strong show from his players to book a berth in the next round.  Paarl Royals Preview David Miller will return to the side as skipper after sitting out in the last two games. Two consecutive losses have dented the team’s momentum. They lost against the Sunrisers Eastern Cape in the last game by 48 runs. They are up against the strongest team in this game, and Miller expects a strong show from his players to win here and make it to the final.  Lhuan-dre Pretorius and Joe Root have made more than 600 runs this season, and the team expects them to deliver a strong start. Rubin Hermann, Mitchell Van Buuren, and David Miller are key players in the middle order, and they look to do well in taking the side to a big total. Dunith Wellalage, Dayyaan Galiem, and Andile Phehlukwayo must do well in the finishers’ role in this game.  Weather Conditions The skies over Gqeberha will be slightly overcast, and batting conditions will be tough. The wicket has flattened out, but the bowlers enjoy good returns from the surface. The side batting first in this game would be happy with a score of 170 runs, with the average first innings score being 143. MICT vs PR Pitch Report St George’s Park, Gqeberha, has a quick surface, and we have always seen fast bowlers do well on this track. The ball comes onto the bat nicely, allowing batsmen to play their strokes. Spinners don’t get much from the surface and must depend on their variations. Toss: To Bat The side chasing the score has won only once in the five games this season at this venue. The conditions were difficult for the batsmen in the second half when the wicket slowed down. The side winning the toss here would have little hesitation in opting to bowl first.

Australia Women vs England Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. AUSW vs ENGW Match Prediction & Analysis It has been a familiar narrative across this multi-format series with Australia Women winning all four of the games (3x WODIs and 1x T20Is) and England Women unable to turn some positive positions into unassailable ones. In the last WT20I, Australia Women looked in command throughout, not losing their first wicket until 114 runs were on the board and then adding another 15 runs from the final over. And as soon as they had dismissed both England Women’s openers for ducks, the writing was very much on the wall. TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview After injuries ruled out captain Alyssa Healy and Ashleigh Gardner from the opening WT20I, Georgia Voll and Grace Harris proved themselves to be decent enough understudies and both made contributions to the win in Sydney. There is no guarantee that either Healy or Gardner will be seen again across this multi-format series but Australia Women are never afraid to back replacements and in Voll and Harris they have two very accomplished players. England Preview The knives have been out for this England Women’s side after they gave up the opportunity of wrestling back the Women’s Ashes by losing the last match. They do still have the opportunity to draw the series, if they can win each of the remaining WT20Is and the Women’s Test. But the problem for England Women is that the team they put out for the opening WT20I was their strongest available and even if there is a clamour for changes with one final throw of the dice, it will only weaken the side. In reality, it is highly unlikely that both openers will make ducks again and that should give the squad plenty of confidence, not that Sophia Dunkley needs any more after she hit a brilliant 59 runs from 30 balls in Sydney! Furthermore, skipper Heather Knight hit 168 not out in a Women’s Test here in 2022. Weather Conditions The game is likely to begin under floodlights with cloudy skies and a small chance of rain. The temperature will be at 24 degrees to kick things off but will drop to the high teens by the close. AUSW vs ENGW Pitch Report This is not the fastest wicket in Australia and the batters often have to manoeuvre and work the ball to score runs as opposed to thrashing it to the fence. A total of 165 is likely to be plenty in the first innings. Toss: To Bowl When the last WT20I took place here, in January 2024, South Africa Women shocked the cricketing world by beating Australia Women by six wickets. It proved to be a fore-runner of the Women’s T20 World Cup semi-final and so we predict that both sides will want to bowl first ahead of this game.
