Southern Brave Women: Smriti Mandhana, Danni Wyatt, Maia Bouchier, Freya Kemp, Chloe Tryon, Georgia Adams, Maitlan Brown, Rhianna Southby (wk), Kalea Moore, Anya Shrubsole (c), Lauren Bell.
Georgia Adams: Georgia Adams has been the most valuable player of the tournament. She has made runs and impactful runs while leading the wicket taking chart with the ball as well. She will undoubtedly be the best captaincy choice for this game.
Sophie Ecclestone: The star spinner had a poor last outing. However, she will still start as one of the safest captaincy options for this game. The conditions at Old Trafford are very much suitable for Ecclestone’s bowling style. In addition, she is too good a player to look over as captain in any of your XIs.
Smriti Mandhana: Smriti Mandhana will be another brilliant captaincy pick for this game. The Indian southpaw has been SOB-W’s top run scorer in this tournament. She has made 226 in seven games at an average of around 37.66.
Mahika Gaur: Mahika Gaur will be a brilliant differential pick for this game. Being a left arm pace option, Gaur can be a huge difference maker in your points tally. In addition, she has been selected by only 10% of the teams as of writing this, making her one of the best differential picks for this game.
Freya Kemp: Freya Kemp finally made some contribution in her last outing for SOB-W. However, she is still not one of the first names in almost every team selected. Therefore, it is advisable to keep her as one of the differential picks for this game.
Emma Lamb: Emma Lamb has been a big disappointment for MNR-W this season. Despite being someone who has an all-round role to play, Lamb will be a risky pick for this game.
