3rd ODI: India Women Vs West Indies Women- Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report, Team And Preview
Cloudy conditions are on the cards on Tuesday with extra swing on offer with the new ball. The temperature isn’t expected to be too high while humidity could play a factor as the game progresses.

Injuries: Natasha McLean retired hurt in the previous game and could play no part on Wednesday.

Predicted XI

India Women:

India could field Smriti Mandhana at the top of the order although it would be a pleasant headache for the team management to make way for the south-paw. Priya Punia is most likely to be dropped for Mandhana with Punam Raut impressing in the second ODI. The experienced duo of Mithali Raj and Harmanpreet Kaur have shown glimpses of what their capable of while India’s spinner will be crucial once again on Wednesday. Much is expected from Jemimah Rodrigues, who hasn’t done much in the series so far for India Women.
Smriti Mandhana/Priya Punia, Jemimah Rodrigues, Punam Raut, Mithali Raj, Harmanpreet Kaur, Deepti Sharma, Rajeshwari Gaekwad, Jhulan Goswami, Taniya Bhatia, Poonam Yadav and Shikha Pandey

West Indies Women:

West Indies Women should field their strongest side with Afy Fletcher also finding her feet in the second ODI. The big news is Hayley Matthews’ return from suspension. She should come in for Natasha McLean, who injured herself in the previous game. The rest of the side should ideally remain the same with Stafanie Taylor and Shemaine Campbell being key in the middle order. Afy Fletcher and Anisa Mohammed are in decent form as well which gives West Indies a good chance of a series win on Wednesday

Hayley Matthews, Stacy Ann-King, Shemaine Campbell, Stafanie Taylor, Chedean Nation, Kyshona Knight, Sheneta Grimmond, Shabika Gajnabi, Afy Fletcher, Anisa Mohammed, Aaliyah Alleyne.

Top Picks:

Stafanie Taylor has been the standout from either side with 114 runs and two wickets to her name. While she is a must-have pick in the side, the likes of Mithali Raj and Harmanpreet Kaur also warranty a spot. The returning Hayley Matthews is considered to be among the best all-rounders in the world. In spite of this being her first game in a long time, she should be picked along with Jemimah Rodrigues, who is due for a big one at the top of the order. Chedean Nation and Shemaine Campbell should also score some runs while spin-bowling all-rounder, Deepti Sharma is also one to watch out for in this game. The likes of Afy Fletcher and Poonam Yadav should also pick a wicket or two as they round the team off.

Captaincy Picks:

1. Mithali Raj
2. Deepthi Sharma
3. Stafanie Taylor
