Nepal Women Preview
Nepal Women have endured a tough tournament, failing to secure a single victory in five outings. Their biggest concern has been their batting unit, which has struggled to put up competitive scores.
Puja Mahato has been the standout performer, scoring 128 runs in five matches, but the team needs more support from Kabita Joshi, Samjhana Khadka, and captain Indu Barma.
In the bowling department, Manisha Upadhayay has been impressive, picking up 7 wickets, while Sita Rana Magar, Puja Mahato, and Kabita Kunwar have chipped in at times. However, Nepal’s inability to take regular wickets has been a major issue.
For Nepal to pull off a consolation win, they will need a collective effort from both their batters and bowlers.
Key Players:
- Puja Mahato – Nepal’s highest run-scorer in the series.
- Indu Barma – The captain needs to lead from the front.
- Manisha Upadhayay – Their most effective bowler so far.
Nepal Predicted Playing XI:
Indu Barma (c), Alisha Yadav (wk), Samjhana Khadka, Mamta Chaudhary, Rubina Chhetry, Sita Rana Magar, Bindu Rawal, Rewati Dhami, Puja Mahato, Kabita Joshi, Manisha Upadhayay
Thailand Women Preview
Thailand Women have been the best team in the tournament, winning four of their five matches and proving to be superior in all departments.
In the batting lineup, Nattakan Chantam and Nannapat Koncharoenkai have been in fine form, with Chanida Sutthiruang and Nattaya Boochatham providing valuable contributions.
Their bowling attack has been outstanding, led by Thipatcha Putthawong, Onnicha Kamchomphu, and Phannita Maya. Putthawong’s four-wicket haul in the previous match was a game-changer, and she will be a key weapon once again.
With momentum on their side, Thailand will aim to finish the series on a high with another convincing victory.
Key Players:
- Nattakan Chantam – The most consistent batter for Thailand.
- Thipatcha Putthawong – A match-winning bowler in the last game.
- Chanida Sutthiruang – A dependable all-rounder.
Thailand Predicted Playing XI:
Naruemol Chaiwai (c), Nattaya Boochatham, Nattakan Chantam, Nannapat Koncharoenkai (wk), Aphisara Suwanchonrathi, Chanida Sutthiruang, Onnicha Kamchomphu, Suleeporn Laomi, Thipatcha Putthawong, Phannita Maya, Sunida Chaturongrattana
