Pitch Report
The pitch at the Kennington Oval typically offers a balanced contest between bat and ball, with a tendency to favour batters during the first innings due to its true bounce and consistent pace. However, bowlers can exploit any wear and tear as the game progresses, especially spinners in the latter stages of the second innings, as evidenced in the three matches that have been played in the current edition at this venue up until now.

The leg-spinning all-rounder has seamlessly continued her exceptional form from the series against New Zealand Women, consistently delivering impactful performances with the ball.
