You’ll always see cricketing teams fighting it out for a trophy but you’ll never really get many chances to see them fighting for a medal. Here, there’s the women’s T20 competition being held at the 2022 Commonwealth Games which allows our women cricketers to come back home with a medal. The games are being played in Birmingham and we’re sure it’s going to be super exciting as the group stages kick off on 29 July.
We begin with Group A and Match 1 will see Australia Women in action, a clear favourite regardless of who they take on. They champs will play India Women at Edgbaston in Birmingham in the first of two games today, with the former having won all of their last three games against this opposition.

Numbers
- Head to head in last 5 games, Australia W leads 3-1.
- 39 and 74 – Meg Lanning scores in recent Ireland tri-series.
- Jess Jonassen – wicketless in only one of her last 10 games.
Australia Women
One of their legendary players, Ellyse Perry won’t be available for this opening game due to injury, but the captain Meg Lanning is available and in good form too, scoring 113 runs in two games at the Ireland tri-series. She’s a must pick in your AU-W vs IN-W fantasy team while Alana King is a youngster who has been impressive in recent games, going wicketless in the last game but still ending with 8 wickets in 4 outings in Ireland.
Yet to show her best talents in international cricket, we’ll skip Tahlia McGrath from our AU-W vs IN-W Dream11 team and instead pick Jess Jonassen who has picked up 19 wickets in her last 10 international appearances and tends to be a match-winner at times. If you want another good batting pick, there’s the ever-reliable wicket-keeper batter Alyssa Healy, while Beth Mooney is also coming into CG 2022 with some form.
India Women
Pooja Vastrakar and Meghana Singh won’t be available for selection in this game because they both tested positive for Covid-19. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur has played WBBL cricket and against a lot of Aussie bowlers, so she’ll be a good pick, maybe even as fantasy captain or vice-captain. An ever-reliable batting pick for India Women is Smriti Mandhana, and she also should be in your team today.

Let’s pick players who have experience on these English pitches, like those who played in The Hundred last year. Jemimah Rodrigues ended as the second highest run scorer in 2021 and she makes our MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) AU-W vs IN-W fantasy team if selected in the playing eleven. Deepti Sharma is also a good fantasy captain choice because she can bat as well as pick up a few wickets!
