Hot Picks For EN-W vs IN-W 1st ODI Dream11 Team Today
England Women
Tammy Beaumont
Recent Form: 445 runs in last 9 matches
One of the most technically sound batters in the women’s game, Tammy Beaumont is a proven performer in English conditions. Her ability to bat through the innings and accelerate when needed makes her a top fantasy pick and a reliable source of points.
Amy Jones
Recent Form: 437 runs in last 9 matches
Jones is in the form of her life, scoring at a brisk rate while keeping the scoreboard ticking. Her role as a wicketkeeper adds immense value and her knack for finishing games makes her a dangerous proposition for any opposition.
Sophie Ecclestone
Recent Form: 12 wickets in last 6 matches
The No. 1 ranked ODI bowler continues to dominate with her control and spin. Sophie Ecclestone is lethal on slower tracks and knows how to build pressure in the middle overs. A strike bowler who can also contribute with the bat, she is an all-round fantasy asset.
India’s premier opener brings both elegance and aggression to the crease. Smriti Mandhana has a stellar record against England and often lays the foundation for India’s big totals. If she gets going, expect a big knock and bigger fantasy points.
Pratika Rawal
Recent Form: 598 runs in last 10 matches
The breakout star of 2025, Pratika Rawal has become a run-machine in India’s middle order. She mixes composure with explosive strokeplay and her ability to play spin and pace equally well makes her a nightmare for opposition bowlers.
Sneh Rana
Recent Form: 15 wickets in last 5 matches
An underrated match-winner, Sneh Rana delivers with both ball and brains. Her ability to break partnerships and contain runs makes her a key figure in India’s spin attack. She is also handy with the bat, offering bonus potential in fantasy leagues.

India Women come into the ODI series high on confidence after clinching a historic T20I series win in England. With a settled core and strong recent form, they’ll look to carry that momentum into the 50-over format.
