Smriti Mandhana is coming off her maiden T20I century, smashing 112 off 65 deliveries in the series opener. She has a magnificent record against England, scoring 836 runs at an average of 42 while striking at 141. Mandhana has seven fifties versus England, along with a hundred.
Charlie Dean has picked 14 wickets in the last nine games at an economy of 6.73. The off-spinner has struck every 15 deliveries in this period. If Dean plays this game, you can back her to get at least one wicket.
Nat Sciver-Brunt struck 66 off 42 in the first game, where no other English batter could cross the 12-run mark. She has been in terrific form, amassing 755 runs in T20 cricket this year at an average of 50 and a strike rate of 146. Sciver-Brunt has struck seven half-centuries this year.
The County Ground in Bristol is known for terrific surfaces for batting in white-ball cricket. The average batting first score of 186 in men’s T20 cricket highlights the good batting conditions. There have been five women’s T20Is hosted here, with the average first innings score reading 145.

The home side lost the season opener by 97 runs in Nottingham. This was England’s heaviest defeat in T20Is by runs. Lauren Bell picked 3 for 27 in four overs, but the rest of the attack was all over the place as they conceded 210.
Chasing the target, England lost both the openers in the first two overs. Nat Sciver-Brunt was the lone warrior, hitting 66 off 42 before they were bowled out for 113.
As for the team selection, Tammy Beaumont took the number four spot in the previous game. Not playing Charlie Dean was a mistake, and you can expect them to correct it.

Defending the target, the debutant Shree Charani claimed 4 for 12 in 3.5 overs while Radha Yadav and Deepti Sharma bagged two scalps each. Harmanpreet was rested for precautionary reasons after being hit on the helmet in the warm-up fixture. She should be back for this game with Harleen making the way.
