It hasn’t been the best ride for Otago Sparks Women so far in the 2019 Women’s Super Smash League in New Zealand. They have only 1 win in their 5 completed games so far, with a current losing streak of 2 games as well. It’s now or never for them now as they could very soon find themselves out of the tournament. They will be in action again now in Match 16 of the season!
Now, they will be up against Northern Spirit Women, a team that has had alternating outcomes, with 2 wins in 4 games so far. Funnily, the only game that Otago Women have won so far came against Northern Spirit itself, and the latter will be looking for revenge today!

Otago Sparks Women
The side is being captained by wicket-keeper Katey Martin and apart from one failure of 4, she has all scores of 20+ in this tournament so far including a top score of 64*. However, the star with the bat has been Suzie Bates who opens the innings and is currently the second highest scorer in the tournament. She’s a legend in women’s cricket and there’s no way you can drop her from your team.
It’s been a pathetic season for Hannah Darlington with only 28 runs in 5 games and also going wicketless in 4 of those games, which means she won’t be picked by many fantasy sides and here’s a gold mine opportunity for you. With the ball, Emma Black has been the leader so far with 7 scalps from her 5 games, and she can handle herself with the bat too, if required.
Northern Spirit Women
The young Caitlin Gurrey is a star already and she is also the tournament leader with the bat so far, with 279 runs in 4 games, including 2 fifties and a century. She’s already played 2 T20Is for New Zealand and we think she’s got a long career ahead of her. The team is being led by Felicity Leydon-Davis who has also done well with the bat including a lowest score of 27* in 3 games and a best of 54. She has bowled in every game too, picking up 1 scalp.
Ireland’s Eimear Richardson is a must have in your MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) fantasy team especially since she hasn’t done well so far, and there won’t be many fantasy teams picking her. She has 25 runs in 4 games and 0 wickets, but she is a good all-rounder with potential of doing really well like she does for the national side.
