WT20 Qualifiers 2019 Match 3 – SCO-W vs USA-W Fantasy Preview

First day of the 2019 Women’s World T20 Qualifiers in Scotland and this tournament will run between 31 August and 7 September 2019. On the first day itself, we have 4 matches scheduled including the first couple between BAN-W and PNG-W, and also that between NED-W and TL-W. Later in the evening, another couple will be played including Match 3 – Scotland Women vs USA Women.

Scotland W plays much more cricket on a frequent basis than USA W and the former is the obvious favourites. They even have the home advantage and few of their players are fresh off stints at the 2019 Women’s Super League in England, so you can select a 6-5 or 7-4 team in their favour. Keep reading for our complete Howzat (sign-up with code “READ1234”) fantasy preview of the SCO-W vs USA-W game…

Scotland Women

In any Scotland Women match, make sure you never forget to pick the Bryce sisters, the two being responsible for many victories for the side. Kathryn Bryce leads the team and she should be your captain or vice-captain especially if you’re playing one-on-one fantasy contests. Bryce is fresh off a stint at the 2019 Kia Super League where she picked up 8 wickets in 9 games for the Loughborough Lightning franchise.

Her sister and opening partner is Sarah Bryce who should be your automatic wicket-keeper pick for this game, who has a batting average of 43+ in 15 T20Is so far. Leg-spinner Abtaha Maqsood is a good bowler pick for this game. However, wait for the result of Game 1 of this tournament which is being played at the same ground. Pick her if there’s assistance for spinners.

USA Women

Sindhu Sriharsha will open the innings for USA Women while also being their designated wicket-keeper and also captain. She has 80 runs in 3 T20Is, coming in just two innings of 42 and 38 so far. She’s a good pick for wicket-keeper but only if your fantasy league allows you 2 keepers. Nadia Gruny is another top order batter and we can drop her as she has scores of 1 and 1 in her last 2 T20I innings.

With the ball, you might want to consider off-break bowler Claudine Beckford for your Howzat (sign-up with code “READ1234”) fantasy team as she has 3 wickets in 3 T20Is so far. However, there’s one x-factor player in this squad and it’s the very young Lisa Ramjit who has 5 wickets in 3 T20Is at the tender age of just 14 years!
