ENGW vs WIW Team Previews

England Women

England Women come into this match as strong favourites backed by a series of impressive performances. The English sit on top of group B with three wins and six points. Their last game showcased their depth in both batting and bowling when they completed a ten-wicket win over Scotland. This will be the final group game for group B.

Both Maia Bouchier and Danni Wyatt-Hodge took the game to Scotland Women in their previous game. They combined to score their target of 113 runs inside ten overs. Both Bouchier and Wyatt-Hodge were aggressive in their approach en route to half-centuries. Bouchier and Wyatt-Hodge hit 62 not out and 51 not out respectively.

Their bowling attack, led by the world-class spinner Sophie Ecclestone, has been effective in restricting opponents. The left-arm orthodox bowler scalped two wickets for 13 runs in four overs in her previous game. Ecclestone, along with fellow spinner Sarah Glenn, will be pivotal on a Dubai pitch that is expected to assist spin bowling.

Charlie Dean has also been a useful addition to the spin-bowling attack.

The experienced pacer Nat Sciver-Brunt will aim to make early inroads during the powerplay. Alongside her with the new ball will be Lauren Bell. Bell has been an exciting prospect for the future of fast bowling in the England ranks.

The English were near their best in their previous outing. They will want a similar performance against the West Indies Women to guarantee their spot in the semi-finals.

West Indies Women

West Indies Women have had a good, but inconsistent tournament so far. They have two wins and one loss to their name. They are still in with a chance of semi-final qualification provided they beat England Women and obtain a superior net run rate to South Africa Women.

Hayley Matthews remains their biggest star with both the bat and ball. The West Indian captain will need to step up once again if they are to stand a chance against the might of the English. She has 52 runs and two wickets in her three games of the tournament.

Matthews will require Stafanie Taylor’s assistance at the top of the batting order if she is fit to play. Taylor hit an unbeaten 44 runs against South Africa Women. Deandra Dottin is another experienced batter who will need to come good in a crunch game. She has two Women’s T20I centuries.

In terms of bowling, Afy Fletcher will play a key role with her leg spin, especially on a track that is likely to assist spin. Fletcher grabbed two wickets against Bangladesh Women. Karishma Ramharack will have to bowl disciplined lines to contain England’s explosive batters. She is in top form after taking four wickets while only conceding 17 runs in her four overs against Bangladesh Women.

The West Indies side will need their key players to fire, otherwise they may find it difficult to compete against a strong English lineup.

ENGW vs WIW Toss Prediction

The team winning the toss is likely to opt to bat first. The pitch tends to slow down as the game progresses, making chasing a bit more challenging.

Pitch and Conditions

The match will be played at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, where the pitch generally offers something for both batters and bowlers. This will be the first game for England Women at this venue this tournament. The highest total they have conceded is 124 for six in 20 overs against South Africa Women.

Batters who can settle early will be able to take advantage of the conditions and the spinners will come into play later in the match.

The weather is expected to be clear, with temperatures around 38 degrees Celsius and no chance of rain.

ENGW vs WIW Betting Tips

England Women have been the stronger team in recent matches and are favourites to win this game. With a well-rounded squad, they are likely to dominate West Indies, whose reliance on a few key players could hurt their chances. England’s bowling strength and depth in batting give them a clear edge.

West Indies Women may be hampered by not having Stafanie Taylor available due to injury. Their strength will be in their top-order batting, but a lot will depend on the all-round performance of Hayley Matthews.

Bet on England Women to win.
