TEAMS PREVIEW

China Women Preview

China Women will enter the contest hoping to improve their inconsistent run in the T20 format. They recently featured in the ACC Women’s T20I Premier Cup, where they managed just one win from three completed matches, suffering defeats against the UAE and Oman. They will face Oman again in the opening game of the tri-series.

In their most recent meeting, China restricted Oman to 105/7 after the latter batted first but fell 16 runs short in the chase. China were bowled out for 89, losing four wickets for just 29 runs during their innings. They will be keen to put in a more composed batting performance and begin the tri-series with a victory.

China’s performance in the Asian Games Qualifiers provides plenty of encouragement. They finished third after defeating Nepal in the third-place playoff, with their only defeat coming against Thailand in the semi-final. They have also enjoyed a strong record against the Philippines, winning both of their T20I meetings.

Mingyue Zhu could be one of China’s key players in the upcoming contest. She was the leading run-scorer for China in the Asian Games Qualifiers and will be expected to anchor the batting order. Given her recent form, Zhu will be looking to make another significant contribution as China aim to start the series on a winning note.

China will need to improve their batting consistency, particularly after their collapse against Oman. However, their recent performances in the Asian Games Qualifiers suggest they have the ability to compete strongly and challenge their opponents.

China Women Predicted Playing XI:

Xie Wenyan, Hong Yali, Zhao Yihan, W Haiting, C Yuzhi, J Li, M Zhu, G Yuting, M Ruike, Q Feng, W Huiying

Indonesia Women Preview

Indonesia Women kick off their campaign in the tri-series which is held in China. Their first assignment is against the hosts. On the same day, they will also play Oman in the tri-series. Indonesia are coming off a decent performance in the ACC Women’s Premier Cup. They defeated Hong Kong in the 3rd place playoff. 

Their unbeaten run in the previous competition comes to an end after a disappointing loss to Thailand in the semifinal game. They had a clinical run to the top four where they defeated Malaysia, Singapore and Kuwait in the group stage. They overcame Oman by 113 runs. But, Thailand gave them a tough setback with an impressive bowling display. Indonesia were bowled out on 66 in the first innings and Thailand easily chased down the total with 8 overs left. 

Indonesia have already booked their place in the ACC T20 Asia Cup. Nanda Sakrani could be a player to watch out for. She has scored 234 runs in the last seven innings. We back her to score above 25 runs in the upcoming game. Derni Bengi is also the best bowler in this side. She has six wickets to her name in four games. 

Indonesia Women Predicted Playing XI:

Fitria Rada Rani, Desi Wulandari, Sang Maypriani, Kisi Kasse, Ni Ariani, Dara Paramitha, Winda Prastini, R Pangestuti, Luh Dewi Wesika, Putu Ayu Nanda Sakarini, Ni Putri Suwandewi

CHW vs INDOW Pitch Report

ZJUT Cricket Field. Hangzhou, Zhejiang hosted quality games during the competition. It offers a good balance between the bat and ball. Out of the previous five games on this ground, the first batting average score is 133 runs. The weather forecast is giving a tough sign for the batters as the overcast conditions might help pacers. It will be the first game of the day on this pitch. We might expect a shorter game. 

Score prediction: 

If China Women bat first - 120-130 runs 

If Indonesia Women bat first - 140-150 runs 

Toss: To Bowl

In the last five women’s T20I on this track, batting first sides won three times. Even 120 is a safe score here. Due to rain prediction, the captain should go for the bowl first in a pressure game and reach 130-140. Both teams have had earlier success while bowling first and they will look to bowl first in this fixture as well. 

Toss Prediction: China Women to win the coin toss.
