Check out the predicted India Women’s Playing XI for their third T20I against West Indies Women. Confident and in-form India Women will take on West Indies Women in the third and last T20I of the three-match series on December 19, 7:00 PM (IST). Navi Mumbai’s DY Patil Sports Academy will host the last fixture of the T20I series. It will be a crucial game to win for both teams considering their performances in the T20I series so far.
With that said, here we’ll look at the predicted playing XI of India Women for the third and last T20I of the three-match series against the Caribbean Women. The knee injury might force the women in blue’s skipper Harmanpreet Kaur to stay out of the playing XI for this game.
Opener –
Star India opener and stand-in skipper, Smriti Mandhana has been in a sensational run of form with the bat in the ongoing T20I series. She has scored 116 runs in two innings, with an outstanding average of 58.00, hitting two half-centuries.
Mandhana, alongside Uma Chetry, could be the best fit to open the innings for India Women in the last T20I of the series
Middle Order –
India’s number-3 batter Jemimah Rodrigues is also enjoying a decent run of form with the bat in the current T20I series. She has aggregated 86 runs in two innings, with an average of 43.00, including a half-century to her credit.
Rodrigues can lead the top middle-order and middle-order batting of India, alongside Raghvi Bist, who made her debut in the second T20I and the experienced wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh.
All-rounders –
Deepti Sharma and Sajeevan Sajana could be crucial assets for the Indian team both with the bat and ball. They could play a vital role with the bat lower down the order to help India post a big total on the board.
Besides an important role with the bat, Deepti-Sajana could also be useful with the ball for the women in blue when it comes to defending a target or restricting the opponent to a lower total.
Bowlers –
The young India pacer Titas Sadhu bowled a brilliant spell in the first T20I against West Indies Women, scalping 3 wickets in her four-over stint. She also registered a brilliant strike rate of 8.00. The management won’t be in a position to afford to exclude Sadhu from the playing XI for the last fixture of the T20I series.
Sadhu can be accompanied by his senior fellow pacers Renuka Thakur and Saima Thakor, alongside left-arm spinner Radha Yadav in the playing XI.
