England Women Team News & Playing XI
ENG-W Team News
There were two changes for England Women ahead of the second WODI with Danni Wyatt returning to the team after illness and Lauren Filer coming in. Lauren Bell and Sarah Glenn were left out. Sophia Dunkley has been added to the squad but is not expected to play in this final game of the series.
ENG-W Team Batting
Bringing Danni Wyatt back into the side certainly strengthens England Women’s batting lineup, providing more depth and allowing the stroke-makers to play aggressively. Maia Bouchier and Tammy Beaumont will open for England Women again in Chelmsford.
ENG-W Team Bowling
Although the second WODI was washed out after just 6.5 overs in Taunton, England Women will be disappointed that they were unable to pick up even one wicket. Kate Cross and Sophie Ecclestone are likely to be the main wicket threats in this match.

Pakistan Women Team News & Playing XI

With Pakistan Women selecting the same XI for the very short amount of action we saw in Taunton, it is unlikely there will be any changes for this game. There should be some confidence in the batting lineup after the openers survived nearly seven overs in the second WODI.
PAK-W Team Batting
After batting well in Derby, opener Sadaf Shamas once more looked comfortable at the crease against the England Women’s bowling attack on Sunday. Nida Dar and Muneeba Ali are also likely to be key players with the bat in this match.
