The Challenger Trophy is a known competition in the Indian domestic circuit which takes place each year. However, we’re not too used to this tournament taking place for women as the 2020 Women’s Challenger 2020 Trophy kicks off tomorrow with 7 T20s scheduled between 4-11 January between India A, B and C. The tournament will have 6 round robin games and then the mega final.
In the opening game, we have India A up against India B and the game will be played at Cuttack at the same ground where all the matches will be played. Each team has a couple of national side players, so pick them first if they fit your fantasy league budget.

India A Women
The side will be led by Harmanpreet Kaur and she’s not someone you can drop because of her loads of international experience. She hasn’t been in the best form in recent weeks so I’ll pick her but as a normal player only. Young batter Priya Punia has 8 games for the national side and recently smashed 112 against Australia A Women in December which makes her a good batting pick for today’s game.
22-year old Devika Vaidya is a fantastic pick as she has been among the wickets including three 4-wicket hauls in her last 10 outings, while also having a best of 89 in 7 ODI innings so far. She’s also a good captain or vice-captain pick because of her all-round abilities. Another very experienced all-rounder is Deepti Sharma who has been among the wickets while also having 10 fifties and 1 century in her ODI career for India.
India B Women
One of India’s best batters at the moment, you can’t miss captain Smriti Mandhana from your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234”) fantasy team, having scored consecutive fifties against WI Women in November last year. Vellaswamy Vanitha won’t make my fantasy side as she hasn’t been consistent, with 5 single-digit scores in her last 10 games, with a best of 40.
19-year old Jemimah Rodrigues is one of the most destructive batters in India and she has two fifties in her last 4 outings for India Women, so there’s good form. With the ball, Poonam Yadav seems to be the best pick considering she has 150+ wickets for India Women at the highest level and has also been hitting the right spots with 14 wickets in her last 10 professional games.
