TEAMS PREVIEW

Netherlands Women Preview

Netherlands Women won the second T20I but were put on the back foot by the visitors who reduced them to 5 down for 76. It was the other opener this time who led the Dutch to victory.

Sterre Laurien Kallis was unbeaten on 62 off 43 balls as Netherlands chased down the target with 5 wickets in hand and 5 balls to spare. She didn’t find much from the skipper or the number 4 batter Robine Rijke who were crucial in the last outing.

The skipper will be concerned about their recent batting performance. Though there are positives to take from the game, the top-order collapse will be a major concern going ahead.

The number 3 and 4 batters will be crucial to build partnerships in the middle order. While there are a few handy batters lower down the order too, a lot still depends on the top 4 batters, especially the openers and the skipper at number 3.

The Dutch bowlers were quick to get the early breakthrough but later on, the opposition started building a partnership. Though this wasn’t as impressive as their previous performance, Netherlands Women were quick enough to pick up more wickets after they broke the partnership for the 2nd wicket.

Overall, despite a close contest, Netherlands Women look strong in comparison and should be ahead in this contest.

Netherlands Women Predicted Playing XI:

Iris Zwilling, Silver Siegers (c), Babette de Leede (wk), Sterre Laurien Kalis, Robine Rijke, Phebe Molkenboer, Sanya Khurana, Frederique Overdijk, Hanna Landheer, Caroline de Lange, Merek Dekeling

Netherlands Women Actual Playing XI:

Hong Kong Women Preview

Hong Kong Women bounced back quite well with both bat and ball. They were particularly impressive with the ball as they delivered consistent breakthroughs while defending the total.

The skipper also stepped up to lead the team to a respectable total against the hosts after being put to bat first. Shanzeen Shahzad and Kary Chan are the ones to watch out for in the middle order.

These two need to find their rhythm and stay around longer to ensure Hong Kong Women cross the line in a run chase. Yasmin Daswani was run out on the first ball and that was a huge blow to the visitors.

She showed great promise in the opening game. There’s Maryam Bibi in the lower order who could be a great to Daswani and Kary Chan. The visitors would have found confidence after their recent performance and will be looking to push even harder in this game.

Betty Chan and Kary Chan will continue to be the key bowlers for Hong Kong Women. In addition, Mei Wai Siu is another key wicket-taker while others need to work on their economy.

Hong Kong Women Predicted Playing XI:

Natasha Miles (c), Mariko Hill, Kary Chan, Shanzeen Shahzad, Marina Lamplough, Yasmani Daswani, Maryam Bibi, Hiu Ying, Cheung (wk), Betty Chan, Iqra Sahar, Mei Wai Siu

Hong Kong Women Actual Playing XI:

Natasha Miles, Shanzeen Shahzad II, Yasmin Daswani, Joyleen Dhaliwal, Alison Siu, Iqra Sahar, Maryam Bibi, Betty Chan, Kary Chan, Mariko Hill, Marina Lamplough

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

NEDW vs HKGW Pitch Report

The 3rd match of the series and the remaining games will be played at the Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd in Utrecht. It is not a high-scoring venue and we are likely to be in for a close contest once again with bowlers enjoying great help from the surface.

Toss: To Bat

Though the hosts chased down the target with 5 wickets in hand, they were in trouble after losing early wickets. We reckon it is still a good choice to bat first and put runs on the board.
