While the men’s team has been seeing a lot of success, recently making the 2021 World Test Championship final, it’s now a chance for the India Women team to prove their mettle as they have a home series between 7-23 March 2021. There will be 5 ODIs and 3 T20Is and we begin with the 1st ODI, with all the games on this tour being held at the same ground in Lucknow.
Keep an eye out to know how the pitch behaves which can help your team selection in future games. They’re playing South Africa Women and historically, the former has held a good advantage over South Africa W in ODI games, so we know who will be favourite to go on to win this ODI series, especially given the home advantage.

India Women
The side is being led by Mithali Raj but it was way back in Oct 2019 that she last got a fifty in any tournament of format of the game, so we’re leaving her out of our IN-W vs SA-W fantasy team today. Instead, we’ll pick their other shining light with the bat in Smriti Mandhana who has 3 fifties in her last 10 outings across tournaments which includes a fifty in her last game for Trailblazers in the Women’s IPL season last year.
Talking about prolific run scoring, we have the super consistent Punam Raut who has got starts in all of her last 10 games across formats which includes 4 fifties in her last 10 games, so she can’t be missed from your IN-W vs SA-W Dream11 team either. With 8 wickets in her last 10 games and a top score of 49* with the bat as well, Deepti Sharma is your best all-round options and she could even be your fantasy captain or vice-captain.
South Africa Women
With scores of 66 and 52* in her last couple of games for SA Women, Tazmin Brits is the x-factor pick for your BatBall11 (Code “READ123“) IN-W vs SA-W 1st ODI fantasy team as not many teams will know about her given her limited international experience so far. With the ball, Shabnim Ismail has picked 20 wickets in her last 10 limited overs games and with nearly 200 international games under her belt, she has plenty of experience.

If you require another bowling pick, we’d recommend going in for Ayabonga Khaka another experienced option with 14 scalps in her last 10 games and this includes a few games at the 2020 Women’s IPL as well. The 21-year old Laura Wolvaardt last had a single-digit score 10 innings ago and with that kind of consistency, she’s not someone you can leave out of your team either.
