Indian opener Pratika Rawal could be the key batter in this clash. She has amassed 180 runs in four innings, consistently delivering in crucial moments for her team. Rawal’s ability to anchor the innings and accelerate when required makes her a potential match-winner who can steer India Women toward a much-needed victory.
Probable Best Bowler: Linsey Smith
England left-arm spinner Linsey Smith could be the key bowler in this clash. She has taken six wickets so far in the tournament, and the Indian pitches, which tend to assist spin, could play to her advantage. Her 10-over spells will be crucial in applying pressure and potentially turning the game in favour of England Women.
