WI-W vs IN-W Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report: Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 Match 9 | IN-W vs WI-W Dream11 Prediction Today | Cape Town Pitch Report
West Indies and India will lock horns in the 9th match of ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023.
West Indies women lost their first game against England by seven wickets. Batting is their weak link as they depend heavily on Hayley Matthews to do the bulk of the scoring. None of the other batters except one or two gives any confidence with the bat. They have a decent bowling attack but they’ll need their batters to support them.
India, meanwhile, won a close-fought game against Pakistan by seven wickets. The bowlers did well for the majority of the innings and the batters then kept their cool and chased down the target with one over to spare, with Jemimah Rodrigues producing a quality knock. India will look to continue their good form and register their second win of the tournament.
