INDW vs NEPW Team Previews
India Women
India has been on a roll in this tournament. With 2 wins in 2 matches, the team is currently at the top of the Group A table with an excellent NRR.
Shafali Verma is in excellent form at the top of the order and is the top run-scorer of the tournament with 77 runs. She, along with Smriti Mandhana has got India off to brisk starts in both matches. Harmanpreet Kaur and Richa Ghosh are pretty solid in the middle order.
The duo scored individual half-centuries in the last match and propelled India to a massive total. Dayalan Hemalatha and Jemimah Rodrigues haven’t had much to do so far.
Coming to the bowling, Deepti Sharma is the leading wicket-taker with 5 wickets, while Pooja Vastrakar and Renuka Singh have picked up 3 wickets each.
India Women Playing 11
Shafali Verma, Smriti Mandhana, Dayalan Hemalatha, Richa Ghosh, Jemimah Rodrigues, Sajeevan Sajana, Deepti Sharma, Radha Yadav, Tanuja Kanwar, Renuka Singh, Arundhati Reddy.
Nepal
After registering a historic win against the UAE in their opening game, Nepal received a 9-wicket drubbing at the hands of Pakistan on Sunday. As a result, they have been pushed down to the 3rd place and must win this match to stay alive in the competition.
A lot will depend on the opening pair of Samjhana Khadka and Sita Magar. Khadka was quite impressive in the match against UAE as she scored an unbeaten half-century but wasn’t able to replicate her performance on Sunday. Magar is one of the most experienced players in the Nepal team.
Skipper Indu Barma and Rubina Chhetry will be the key batters in the middle order. If one of them gets going, Nepal could be looking at posting a competitive total.
The bowling has been a big letdown for the team.
Barring Indu Barma, who has picked up 3 wickets, none of the bowlers have managed to bowl a good spell. Nepal will expect its spinners to bowl better in this match.
Nepal Playing 11
Samjhana Khadka, Sita Magar, Kabita Kunwar, Indu Barma, Dolly Bhatta, Rubina Chhetry, Puja Mahato, Kabita Joshi, Bindu Rawal, Sabnam Rai, Kajal Shrestha.

Pitch and Conditions
While the pitches at Dambulla have been good to bat on, there will be some help for the bowlers who bowl in the right areas. The surface is firm and dry and there are some patches of green grass that the seamers can exploit. The slower bowlers can expect some turn throughout the match.
A score of around 170 is a par score on this surface.
The weather is expected to be humid with a temperature of around 27 degrees.
INDW vs NEPW Betting Tips
India is the overwhelming favorite to win this match. While Nepal does have some good players, they are no match for India’s experienced squad.
Bet on India W to win.
Bonus Cricket Bets
Shafali Verma is the leading run-scorer for India in this tournament and is in fine form with the bat. She has scored at least 27 runs in each of her last 3 T20 innings and we are backing her to do so again in this match.
Deepti Sharma has bowled well to pick up 5 wickets in 2 matches. She was the best bowler for India in both matches so far. As the pitch at Dambulla helps the spinners, Deepti has a good chance of bowling yet another good spell.
