Match Preview: AU-W vs SL-W Dream11 Prediction ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024
Australia women will be challenged by Sri Lanka women in the 5th match of ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024. The match will be played at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai on 5th October 2024. The match will start at 3:30 PM IST.
This will be the first game of this T20 World Cup for Australia’s women’s team. They are the defending champions and are again the top contender to lift the cup this time as well. They have insane depth in their squad. Their whole squad is full of players who can win games on their own. They are expected to start off their campaign with a win in this match.
Sri Lanka women, meanwhile, had a shaky start to their campaign in this tournament. They lost their first game against Pakistan by 31 runs where they failed to chase down 116 runs. Their bowlers did a good job but the batters failed miserably and this game is going to be close to impossible for them to win unless Chamari Atapattu comes up with a match-winning performance.
AU-W vs SL-W: Probable Playing XIs
Australia Women: Alyssa Healy (c &wk), Beth Mooney, Ellyse Perry, Tahlia McGrath, Ashleigh Gardner, Anabel Sutherland, Sophie Molineux, Kim Garth, Georgia Wareham, Megan Schutt, Alana King
The pitch at Dubai is expected to be a good one for batting, especially, in the latter half of the match. There will be some movement for the pacers with the new ball and the spinners will get good assistance off the deck. Don’t expect a lot of runs if Sri Lanka women bat first. Teams will prefer chasing.
It will be a hot sunny day with no chance of rain. The temperature will hover around 33-34 degrees Celsius and humidity will be around 40-50% during the game.
Top Player Picks for AU-W vs SL-W Dream11 Prediction
Alyssa Healy (AU-W)
Australian skipper Alyssa Healy will be a good fantasy pick for this game. She’ll open the innings and can score big if she gets going. Healy will fetch points from wicket-keeping as well.
Healy has 366 runs in 11 innings at an average of 36.60 at a strike rate of 136.10. She is amongst the best openers in women’s cricket and is expected to do well in this match.
Annabel Sutherland (NZ-W)
Annabel Sutherland will bat in the middle order and is expected bowl 3-4 overs as well. She’s a quality all-rounder and will be a must-pick in your fantasy teams.
She has 239 runs in 10 innings at an average of 29.90 and has struck at 135 in T20s this year. Sutherland has picked up 11 wickets as well at an economy of 5.77.
Georgia Wareham (AU-W)
Georgia Wareham is a key bowler for the Aussies. She is a wicket-taker and is capable with the bat as well. Wareham can turn out to be a game-changer in fantasy cricket for this match.
She has 15 wickets in 12 T20Is this year at an economy of 5.88 and has 135 runs in 7 innings at an average of 22.50 and a strike rate of 148.40 including one fifty.
Top Captaincy and Vice-Captaincy Picks for AU-W vs SL-W Dream11 Prediction
Chamari Atapattu (SL-W)
Chamari Atapattu will be a good choice for C/VC in this match. She will open the innings and will bowl 4 overs as well. She failed with the bat in the first game but picked up 3 wickets with the ball.
She has 267 runs in 7 games at an average of 44.50 and she has 4 wickets as well against Australia women in T20Is.
Ashleigh Gardner (AU-W)
Ashleigh Gardner is amongst the best all-rounders in women’s cricket. She bats very aggressively and is excellent with the ball as well. She will bat in the middle order and will bowl an over or two towards the end of the innings.
She scored 115 runs in 8 T20Is in 2024 and has picked up 13 wickets as well in 11 games. Gardner hasn’t been in the best of forms lately but she’ll be a good C/VC option for this match.
Ellyse Perry (IN-W)
Ellyse Perry is arguably the greatest player in women’s cricket. She will bat at 3 and may bowl an over or two.
She has 219 runs at an average of 24.30 and a strike rate of 117.70 in 11 matches this year. She is yet to score a fifty in T20Is in 2024. Despite that Perry will be a top C/VC choice as she’s a quality player and can win games single-handedly on her day.
AU-W vs SL-W Player to Avoid
Anushka Sanjeevani (SL-W)
Anushka Sanjeevani will bat at number 6 or 7. She’s not expected to do much with the bat and will be our payer to avoid in this game. She may give some points from catches or stumpings but it won’t be worth it to pick her in your fantasy teams.
