It wasn’t the best start for India Women to the 2022 Commonwealth Games as far as cricket was concerned. After having Australia Women on the backfoot and almost having pocketed the game, they let it slip and lost their opening game a Birmingham. Now, it’s a chance for redemption as we have another Group A game, this being Match 5 of CWG 2022 at the same ground at Edgbaston.
This time, it’s a packed house because they’re playing Pakistan Women and this rivalry never gets boring for cricket fans. India last lost to Pakistan in women’s T20s in 2016 and Pakistan W began with a loss too, unable to get over the line against Barbados Women in their opening game of the tournament.

Numbers
- Head to head in last 5 games, India W leads 4-1.
- 48, 49, 71*, 35 – Shafali Verma’s last 4 scores for India W.
Pakistan Women
With a best score of 32* in her last 5 games and no wickets in them too, we’re leaving captain Bisma Maroof out of our IN-W vs PK-W fantasy team for this game. Instead, we’re picking opening batter and wicket-keeper Muneeba Ali who we think can get a few quick runs at the top of the order. If you’re looking at another batting option, Omaima Sohail is worth picking, who was unfortunately run out after scoring 10(14) against Barbados W.
A good option to have as fantasy captain or vice-captain is genuine all-rounder Fatima Sana who didn’t only pick up 2 wickets in the last game but also scored a fifty. While most fantasy players will select Indians as fantasy captains, here’s a good chance to get ahead in your IN-W vs PK-W Dream11 team. Anam Amin finished wicketless in the last game with 0/24 in her four overs but she’s a consistent wicket-taker in this format.
India Women
We’re first picking those Indian players who have experience of playing in England, especially with a few playing in The Hundred 2021 last year. Harmanpreet Kaur showed why she’s the best in the business with her quickfire fifty in the last game, and she bowls at times too, which is an add-on. Usually not too consistent, opening batter Shafali Verma has scored 40+ in all of her last four outings for India and she’s a must have too now. Also, Pooja Vastrakar joins the squad for this game.

In the last game, it was Renuka Thakur who bowled her 4 overs on the trot and she was getting a lot of swing which troubled all the Aussie batters. Given the confidence from that game, we’re adding her to our MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) IN-W vs PK-W fantasy team while leaving out Meghna Singh who is just recovered from Covid-19 and was expensive in the last game. All-rounder Deepti Sharma is someone worth having as fantasy captain.
