Hosts England Women will compete against India Women in the final of the Commonwealth Games Women’s Cricket Competition in 2022. England Women arrive in this game after a huge win over New Zealand Women, and the team will be optimistic about their chances. India Women are also on a roll, having recently defeated Barbados Women.
Match Preview
The track would be flat, as it has been in most games. Bowlers would receive some help in the early overs. A total of 160 runs would be necessary for the team that bats first in this game. Birmingham’s Edgbaston Cricket Ground has one of the best batting surfaces in England. Fast bowlers generate pace and bounce from this track in the early overs, but spinners struggle because the ball skids through and doesn’t turn much. The sides chasing the score have won the majority of the evening games.
Team Preview
Heather Knight has been ruled out of the tournament due to a serious injury. Natalie Sciver has led the team admirably, and they have won all of their league games. The Indians would present a more difficult challenge, and Sciver would like her players to be at their best. Sophia Dunkley hasn’t been at her best, and she’ll have to step up to open the batting with Danielle Wyatt. With the new ball, Katherine Brunt and Sophie Ecclestone made sure the Kiwis didn’t score any runs.
Harmanpreet Kaur’s team advanced to the semifinals with confidence. The team with the bat and ball put on an excellent performance against Barbados Women. Except for a poor spell with the ball against Australia, the team has performed well in this league. Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana have done well at the top, and the side would want a strong performance from them in the semis. Renuka Singh and Meghna Singh bowled pretty well with the new ball and we would expect the same in the upcoming match.

England is predicted to win this match.
